Today we went to the airport to start our 2 day journey to Australia. We left around 1:00 pm Scotland time, which is 5 hours ahead of EST, and landed in Proserpine (the airport near Airlie Beach) around 3:30 pm Airlie beach time on November 3rd, which is 15 hours ahead of EST! So it was Saturday for us (and we left Scotland on Thursday) and Friday for all of you. The flights were long, the layovers were long, but it’s worth it because now we are here in paradise. It was so funny though – the Brisbane airport actually had trash cans labeled “Rubbish” instead of “Trash”!
We road a coach bus to our apartment in Airlie beach and we were kind of nervous to see what we would be living in for 4 weeks. We were not disappointed! Check it out! These are pictures of the apartment, the view from our balcony, and the view from the pool, which is right next to our apartment.
I think it’s even bigger than our apartment was in Fairfax! Although it is more expensive, it has beautiful views and is in a great location. We have a full kitchen, big shower, huge balcony with great views and a nice table, and a nice pool right outside our door! Unfortunately, we don't have internet, so we'll have to find internet cafes to keep you all updated. So we won't be able to update you every day. Welcome to paradise!!! This is what we've been waiting for.
