Finally returned to the U.S. today. Woohoo!! As much fun as I had in Australia, I did miss our lovely country. I miss shops opening past 4 or 5 PM. I’m chilling in California for the rest of today and flying home tomorrow morning. The flight home wasn’t so bad except for the 3 hour delay we had to suffer on the stifling hot plane due to engine and air conditioner malfunctions. They were going to replace a part on one of the engines, but the mechanics tinkered around and figured it out. I watched a lot of movies there and back. There: Marie Antoinette – good, Borat – hilarious (but ya’ll knew that), Babel – eh ok I suppose, but some disturbing scenes. Back: The Queen – okay, Volver – very good, L’equipier – also pretty good. I think I would’ve enjoyed all of the movies more had I been able to hear what they were saying. The headsets just don’t work well. Wish they all had subtitles! I ended up watching foreign films because those were all subtitled. As consistent with these past 2 weeks of gluttonous feasting, we went to Kirala for dinner tonight and I am so full I can barely breathe.
