We board our flight home. The elderly Indian man sitting across the aisle seems to be a bit deaf. The flight attendants keep telling him that he needs to put his seat belt on. He seems to hear the word "belt" alright, but then keeps pointing to the device that's holding up his pants. Eventually his wife intervenes and we're able to take off.

There are signs at Melbourne Airport saying that the TV show "Border Security" is being filmed, and if we don’t want to appear in an episode we need to tell someone. I wonder why the people who get caught importing chicken feet and live snakes don’t just tell someone that they'd prefer it if the cameras focussed on others. Then again I s'pose the show might get just a tad boring if all the would-be smugglers took this approach.

We arrive home, and are reunited with our beloved offspring. We've really missed them. They don’t appear to have done each other any serious harm, and the house still appears to be in one piece. Our great adventure is over.
