Smile 3 days and we're away...

The time is almost on us, most of our goodbyes have been said, only my parents to go...gulp!!.. many tears shed the most when leaving my lovely home of the past 4 years and best friend... funny how the unexpected get to you..

We are on the emirates flight from Heathrow on Wednesday evening, spending time in Dubai and Singapore before reaching sunny Brisbane on 23 September..

Looking forward to meeting our old and new friends soon... Hope people are still up for a Brisbane meet mid October!! (baby sitters could be a problem though!).. might have to be long lunch!!

If you see a couple in their mid-forties sqeaking with delight (every 10 seconds!) at Heathrow airport tomorrow night, then its US!!!! We're on the Singapore airlines flight at 22:00ish. We're flying directly to Brisbane though. Hope you have a great stopover in Dubai and Singapore.
