Hello Australia!

We are here. We made the entire 8000 miles trip over the pacific ocean and with little incident. I'm so relieved. Owen fell asleep before we got on the plane so when we were getting off he asked if we were going to get on the plane once we got off the bus. He thought the plane was a bus, the cutie. Both kids were wonderful and we have been walking around the neighborhoods right around our hotel and it's so cute. We're going out tonight to the zoo and around the other side of the wharf so I'll post pics tomorrow or something. As an interesting note, we are staying in a hotel that is part hotel rooms and part residences. Apparently Russell Crowe lives down at the very end (no public access obviously) and the director doug is working with saw him in the lounge. So now i've got my eyes out and camera ready. I hear he loves the public and photos and all that, so i can't wait to ask for his autograph.
