Well, I'm writing this last post from the airport in Sydney. Our flight boards in about 20 minutes and before you know it we will back home in sunny Southern California. Nothing too eventful happened in the last couple days, we just explored the city and took it easy. Our skydive got canceled because of wind, so our 5th and final try at it failed as well, Megan and I think its a sign.
Well we should be making our way to the gate so I shall leave you with one last farewell from down under, say see you soon, and g'day...

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore! Dream! Discover!" -Mark Twain
“We must go beyond textbooks, go out into the bypaths and untrodden depths of the wilderness and travel and explore and tell the world the glories of our journey.”
-John Hope Franklin
The experience of traveling creates memories and stories that stay with you forever. These memories not only put a smile on your face, but the stories help others grin and chuckle as well. Numerous family members and friends are interested in my travels and I figured this would be the best way to share some of my tales. I also hope everyone who reads this page can live vicariously through me; if not for just the short time it takes you to read the new posts.
Saint Augustine said, “The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page." I believe this to be true, so even if you do not get to see some of these places for yourself, I will do my best to summarize and show you what I can. What follows will be a sort of "Cliffnotes", if you will, reported to the best of my ability, that will help you get through that "World book", page by page, place by place, experience by experience...

It was a fine blog, Ben. Nice going. Thanks for allowing us along.
Since many will read that last blog and figure no else will respond to the travelers, this may go unread, but none the less, (she was a good teacher), the travelers are back, it is now Saturday,and Ben is still asleep,i think it is Sunday around 5 AM in the land down under, it was quite the adventure and they all had a great time and they are still on speaking terms. I am sure Ben will add some final thoughts, when he wakes up, next week.
