We're Off!

We just finished packing and the total is...

9 checked bags plus a stroller
3 carry-ons plus a camera bag, computer bag and baby backpack

Not too bad considering we are going for a year. We are leaving for the airport at 10:15am tomorrow and should be arriving in Sydney at 6:35am on Wednesday (that's 3:35pm on Tuesday Philly time). Both of Jason's parents are dropping us off (one for the bags and one for us!) Hopefully it all goes smoothly as there are alot of places that something could go wrong. For example, we received an email last week about some possible strike that the Sydney airport employees might be going on that would cause huge delays. Can't even worry about that. Or, Abby and I both have head colds right now so we could be in lots of pain once we are a million feet in the air. But, there's nothing I can do about that either.

We're beat...to bed! We'll be in touch from Sydney. Thank you to everyone that has helped us get to this point, we are very grateful.
