Journey to Australia

Journey to Australia, Day 1

The start of 2014 took me to a faraway land around the world and down under. Due to the time change and the direction of the A380 flight around the globe, it took me 4 calendar days to arrive at my destination of Melbourne, Australia.

Once I acquired my luggage and stepped outside a windowless door, to my surprise I was greeted with big smiles from my son-in-law David, my daughter Esly and my baby grand-daughter Kiara at 2:30 am.

We picked the airport garage to take our first photo. Here I am with Kiara at the tender age of 7 months, when I met her for the very first time; in complete awe at her lovely features and pretty blue eyes. I could see her dad and mom all at once, blended together by the hand of our Lord. 



Kiara should have been asleep, but her mom says she would not have missed meeting her grandmother for anything else. My heart rejoiced at this moment after 40 actual hours of flight time that led me here.

Next stop: their house!
