We've arrived, slept & all is well! We arrived at Sydney airport early Thursday morning after a long and fairly eventful trip from Dulles & LA. Unfortunately, some of us ate some things that didn't agree with us, but we are all feeling much better after some much needed sleep.
Our "coach" picked us up at the airport and Keith, our bus driver, took us to the city of Bathurst where we met some locals, had a small lunch and then continued on our way to Cowra a small farming town, population 10,000. The were so excited to meet us. We were quickly wisked away to our host families for hot showers, a home cooked meal and some local sightseeing. We all probably fell asleep by 9pm last night!
Today they have planned a whole day of activities to learn about the local aboriginal culture--we can't wait!
Please pray for WARMER weather. Today we'll reach a high of 8C. (We think it's in the 40's) We saw ice this morning. :-)
Off to a packed day!

Hello to the pilgrams down under from us up over. We will pray that you get some of our warm weather. 90 degrees and sunny.
I look forward to hearing some of the specifics about the history you learn today, and would be very interested to hear what you are eating for B-L-D. Love ya, Mom
