I couldn’t believe it was less than a 12 hour flight from Brisbane to LA. I’m sitting in the LA airport right now and it feels so good to be in America, but I can’t lie… for at the same time it feels SO weird. I feel like a stranger in my own country, disoriented, unadjusted. It’s comforting to hear people speaking with an American accent, and I just had a breakfast that would have cost me about 30 dollars in Australia (ok, ok– I’m exaggerating, but still). I didn’t like how I had to give the guy a tip though!

I had incredible luck with checking my bags, but I’ll talk about that once I get to Boston – I don’t want to jinx my luck. Until then…
