Well, we're home. Our flight to Sydney was uneventful and we were home in time to pick up Rufus from the kennel. It's great to be home, but coming back down to earth after such a great holiday is a bit hard to take. All of a sudden I have to start doing mundane things again, like washing, cooking and cleaning. And on Wednesday I have to go back to work. Not fair!
So, my blog has now come to an end. I hope you've enjoyed reading it as much as I've enjoyed writing it. Before I go, here are some final observations from our holiday:
Best experience: seeing the Grand Canyon.
Other highlights: exploring San Francisco, Disneyland, the unfailingly friendly and helpful people we encountered.
Worst experience: Hollywood - too crowded, too noisy, too scary.
Lessons learned: Pack light - I only wore about 70% of the clothes I packed; pack a fleece - you never know when it's going to get cold; don't over-schedule your days - it's not enjoyable if you're exhausted because you've packed too much activity in; observe and enjoy everyday life - it's often just as interesting as the major tourist sights.
Until the next Rogers holiday...
