Pri and I just got home from our WONDERFUL trip back home and although we are both nursing a flu (courtesy of many family members being sick and staying in the same house) we couldn't be happier that we made the trip back for Reena's wedding/Christmas.
Our journey started with a 12 hour flight from Sydney to LA which surprisingly went by REALLY fast - I think this might be because we were telling everyone how long of a journey this trip would be before we left. After narrowly escaping missing our flight to Toronto due to slow US customs officers coupled with 5 other A380's landing at the same time as our flight - we were on our Air Canada flight back home!
The two weeks were spent enjoying LOTS of food like Pri's mum's Sheppard pie on the night we landed and my momma's famous stuffed chicken on Christmas Day.
Some of our highlights were:
Given all of that - we are both really happy with the time spent back at home but are also happy to be back in the Sydney Sun!

Some of our highlights were:
- Family Cooking Fest on Christmas Eve (note to everyone reading - sometimes its more difficult to cook with more people as every chef has their own method)
- Momma's Bday Party - where Sisterkat, Michael Jijakat, Pri and I lead the famous After Eight relay race. Please see attached demo courtesy of Michael Jijakt:
- Catching up with some of our closest friends (sorry for those we weren't able to connect with)
- Eating Chicken Wings - although they weren't as good as we remembered
- US Shopping Mission :)
- Opening Giant Christmas Cracker - which we were technically not suppose to bring in our luggage
- Playing games on Christmas day with family: Rummy-O, Pin the Moustache on the Cowboy, Christmas Scategories
Given all of that - we are both really happy with the time spent back at home but are also happy to be back in the Sydney Sun!
