This is going to be an adjustment! Life back in the fast lane...
These are some long serious hours flying to our island in the Pacific. Again we stopped in Dubai but also had a stop in Brisbane. Just a break though (4 hours Dubai and 2 hours Brisbane) and our bags made it all the way with us thankfully.
In NZ we caught a bus to the train to a small town called Huntly where my son delivered our car to us in the rain. Only had a moment to hug the grandies (because of the rain and they were on their tablets in the car) they headed back home, 20 minutes north, and we headed home 1 and half hours south.
