And hearing familiar Aussie accents on the plane and on arrival was spectacular. It was like meeting a long lost friend and picking up where you left off.
Even thou I was tired on arrival, the 2 hour drive home felt like it was all of five minutes. Small talk has never been my strong point, but I actually enjoyed not hearing about vet med, and talking crap about politics, the weather and the almighty footy grand final this weekend.
I mean who'd have thought, the last time Souths made a grand final was before I was born, in 1971, but here they are playing Canterbury this weekend.......
The almighty meat pie and sausage roll were first on the list......I must say it has been and was worth the wait. Then phone calls to some mates. Again, worth the wait especially as we picked up where we left off.
But above all else it was home. It was the little things that I have missed. The walk to the shopping center and grocery shopping.
Everything seems so insignificant now that I am home........
