scented air...

...and blue skies after the final schlepp from Melbourne to Perth, the plane packed with footy supporters (it's AFL finals time in Perth), a gang of  large, exuberant 15 year old basketball players here for the State champs and a weary pod from the US blinking recognition at each other from the waiting lounge at LAX.

The garden and house look great and with a cool bag full of groceries courtesy of ML the journey concludes...a bath and sleep await.

What an adventure!
