My Last Post From Australia!

Well, this is it.. my last day in Australia. My long Australian journey is coming to an end, and it is definitely a bittersweet time.

The last few days have been filled with saying goodbye to friends, saying goodbye to places in the city (like Darling Harbor, King St., Paddy's Markets, etc), cleaning, and packing! I am about 85% done packing my things... all I have left is the stuff I wont be able to pack until Sunday morning. I have a lot of luggage and it is a pain to carry around! I'll be glad when I am at home with it.

Tonight Charity and I are going to walk around Circular Quay and have a fancy dinner in The Rocks. Then we are going to meet up with our friends Dan and Meg and grab a few drinks in The Rocks, and say goodbye to the Opera House and Harbor Bridge. It will be hard, but I have so many pictures of each it will be hard to forget what it looks like! I will miss Circular Quay the most - there is just nothing in the US that compares to it (except maybe San Francisco.. maybe). It will be weird not being able to hop on a bus and head down there, like I have countless times before over the last 4.5 months.

Tomorrow (Sunday) my flight takes off at 2:45PM (which is 12:45AM Sunday in Cleveland) and I will be home roughly around 11:45 PM Sunday night. So - almost an entire 24 hour trip! Yuck. I guess that will give me a lot of time to reflect on my experience here - it has been an incredible 4 and a half months, and I am so happy I got the chance to do this!

Thanks for keeping up with this blog :) Can't wait to see all of you when I get home!

Love,
Becky
