I made it!!

After 22 very tiring hours in the air, a close-call flight delay in San Fran, and 2 rounds of Tylenol pm, (oh and a $40 cab ride to the hostel where I'm staying tonight - pic attached) I made it to Australia.  As we were making our final descent to the Sydney airport, the captain asked if we would lift our shades for landing. I do so just in time to catch a glimpse of the sunrise. But it wasn't just any sunrise; it was a Sydney sunrise, in all of it's captivating beauty. I only wish I had a camera to capture the colors, but I know even a photo would not do this justice...not even close. I never knew a sunrise could hold all of the colors of the rainbow...no, really...ALL of them. Breathtaking is the only word I can muster. 
I have a feeling there are many things I never imagined that Australia is going to bring to the surface for me. I'm at the door, knocking.
