Off to our next adventure

Our plans have changed a little bit... Once we started researching an adventure to Kauai (the prices are a lot more and after we were socked in with horizontal driving rain for three days here on Maui and Kauai won't be any better during this winter raining season) and once we realized our flight situation (not being able to leave the Hawaiian Islands for two weeks - one more week than we planned) we decided to skip Kauai and head to the summer side of the world.  We are heading to Sydney on Tuesday!  We start our traveling at 12:00 am tonight by flying to San Francisco and then spending a day walking around like zombies until our 10:30 pm flight to Sydney.  We have a car rented for when we arrive at 8:00 am on the 1st so we can head north and recover from jetlag while lying on some Australian beaches.  We're excited for a new chapter in our travel journal and look forward to sharing more about our trip with you.  We're not sure what our computer situation will be on this portion of our journey.  We have been very fortunate to be able to borrow our friends' computers while staying at Hale Akua and now we're back to writing from our little Ipod touch screen!
