Home again and so the story ends...... for now!

These are the last photos taken, last Wednesday morning in LA. Went to Uncle Bill's for a last brekky of pancakes and Dave had a 'Denver Omelette'. He was most impressed as it was topped with a slice of fresh pineapple, grilled. We walked along the pier looking again for the dolphins - but they were hiding. It was a beautiful sunny morning!

Checked out of our hotel at 7pm (late check-out) and waited for the shuttle. We were the only ones on it. Our driver was friendly, turned out he was from Costa Rica and so we had a little chat with him in spanish. Lined up at VAustralia to deposit bags and then off to gate 34 to wait until 11.15pm to board. Felt like we were on the 'Disney' flight home - lots of families with small children who were all on some sort of 'sugar high' - racing around the terminal.

13 hr flight home - wasn't too bad, not a lot of turbulence. We landed in Brisbane at 6.30am on Friday morning - it was overcast and a bit showery.

So that concludes our wonderful holiday for 2010 - planning for our next trip will begin immediately!!!
