Well, it is finally upon us - our first visit back to the USA. So many things are going through our minds: Will it feel real? Will we feel like outsiders? Will people think we sound funny or will they pick up on our new lingo? Will it go by too fast?
We are all packed, house cleaned and we are ready. Tomorrow we will plan to go out for a nice brunch since we have gotten all the food out of our house. Our friend Debi has graciously agreed to take us to Christchurch airport.
We are flying Emirates to Sydney and then V Australia to Los Angeles where we will meet Cynthia. The plan is to go pick up some Mexican food as soon as possible. We are really looking forward to it.
We wonder how the flight will be different - less anticipation about what awaits us on the other end of the journey. I guess now, when will we ever have that anticipation again now that we are officially citizens of both hemispheres. Crazy how much 10 months can change you and your perspective and also how quickly it has flown.
Bon Voyage! USA Here we come! :)
