Just wanted to say hello - after an amazing 2.5 weeks in Australia, I'm finally back and settled into things here, so hope to get back to regulatly scheduled Nesting! Going through the posts, looks like it was a busy few weeks (so nicely summarized by Neptoon below), and vibes go out to those who need it.
We had such an amazing trip, and I really did not want to come home. It ended up being a great mix of city sightseeing, relaxing on the beach, seeing gorgeous scenery, meeting up with friends, playing with cool animals, and being active. Overall great weather, good food and super friendly people just capped it all off.
DH took about a massive amount of pics that we're still combing through, but some of my immediate favs are below.
