G'Day Australia

---

Well, after 14 hours of travelling, we made it to Sydney. There were a few tears and tantrums from Dad, but Mom and G held it together. We quickly got to Wollongong and we've settled at Graduate House, into a comfortable two bedroom apartment. It even comes with pets! The first week was a flurry of new phones, shopping, visas, computer issues, school visits, busses, and pest control. We've been quick to catch up with old friends and Gabe has been busy making new ones. We're into our second week and things have settled considerably. Mom's at uni, Gabe's at school and me...? Well, I've bought a bike, been to the beach and am considering a job. Dreams do come true, Kids!

Here's our new home. Wollongong is just south of Sydney on the coast of New South Wales.
