Final Destination: Erie, Pennsylvania

Our trip over was pretty good, apart from a few dramas. We arrived on time to Williamtown airport, Newcastle, and after checking in we said our goodbyes to the fam (with both Mothers getting quite emotional) and set off for Sydney. As soon as the plane got up it seemed to start going back down, a really quick flight but still long enough to get those interesting Qantas Pretzel and Rice Snack mixes.... When we arrived in Sydney we booked in then went to the information desk where Bromley heckled the Qantas representative trying to get us into Business class (to absolutely no avail). We managed to get what were considered ' better' seats in economy, however it ended up we had to wake this old lady up everytime Kimbo needed to go to the toilet....

Anyways, we met up with Hannah at Sydney Airport, who was flying to Europe the same time we were flying to the states (photo below just for you Han!) and had a coffee. The flight over was delayed 45 minutes, and when it finally begun it was long and tedious and we only managed to get a few hours sleep each. Due to the delayed departure, we arrived late, had to rush through point of entry and customs only to arrive at our transfer flight 5 minutes late. This happened with both our transfer flights but luckily we were let into both of them. Our final flight to Erie was short but sweet, Bromley managed to get the guy who was sitting next to him to give us his phone number.... which will be a good contact as he has grown up in Erie all his life. He promised to show us some pubs and sights (we've already seen plenty of pubs, not many sights!). Anyways, that was our trip over. We stayed at our hotel for 2 nights and have now moved into our new place....
