Perth, Australia
Arrived Safely in Perth
We arrived @ 5:05pm (about 25 minutes late) and got through customs unscathed (had to give up the trail mix that we got at the grocery store but that was no big deal).
Genie was there to greet us and we were able wedge our 4 bags into her car for the short trip to her house (about 15 minutes).
Chatted up a storm, got caught up on what we've each been up to over a bottle of champagne and a couple of cold beers for Tony. Genie's brother, Charlie joined us and we had a very tasty bowl of homemade chili over rice.
It had been a long day so we hit the hay early [10pm] - our bodies were still on NZ time but our minds were on Perth time - bodies won !
