Since we're so close we had to explore a bit of Australia for vacation (and because it's warm and sunny there this time of year). Did some surfing in Byron Bay, Ben talked James and I into skydiving from 14,000 feet. (Very strange to see your son going out that door at 14,000 feet!) Happily we all landed safely--what an adrenaline rush! Went to Aussie's version of Disneyland (Dreamworld) and went to Steve Irwin's Australia Zoo. Spent a couple days in Brisbane which is a great city. Our visit coincided with the Queen's visit but we didn't brave the crowds to see her. We did get to see New Zealand win the Rugby World Cup at long last! (Last won by New Zealand in 1987).
