A series of firsts.....

A series of firsts: First flight on a 747 (now to do an A380) First time crossing the international date line First time crossing the equator ( when we went north of the Arctic circle, we became 'bluenoser's'. Does this mean we are now... brown-nosers?) First time visiting Aussie-land after a 30 (count 'em) 30 hour trip! (blew into Tokyo on the heels of a Typhoon to find NO SUSHI!).

We are now 'resting' in our hotel, a fairly spartan place, but clean and right downtown Melbourne.
