In just a few hours I'll be reunited with Julie, it's been along two months with out her. I have a much deeper appreciation for who she is and how much she means to me having spent some time away. No amount of time of the phone or Skype can really allow you to connect with someone, but it's not a complaint because at least those tools are available at a minimal cost these days.
The flight over in July was on a new Airbus 380, the return flight was a 747-400. I'll sum up my comparison of the two by saying, if Boeing is still building the 747-400 in its current form I don't seem them lasting much longer with briliant aircraft like the A380 out there.
Currently I'm sitting in the LA airport, I've been awake for nearly 24 hours since I didn't sleep on the 14 hour flight from Melbourne. The 6 hour layover in LA is very frustrating, but it's best to just put on a smile and look forward to seeing Julie and the Mini-Husky's in a few short hours.
After being back in the US for a couple of hours I can already tell I'm ready to go back to Australia. There's just something about life in that country, it's hard to explain, but you know it when you see/feel it. I'm glad my last two months over there wasn't just a vacation, we get to go back in 30 days.
