Apparently airplanes put me to sleep. We took a plane from Dayton to Dallas, Dallas to Brisbane, and Brisbane to Melbourne and I slept probably about 80% of the time. The 16 hour flight from Dallas to Brisbane didn't seem nearly as long as I thought it would. I slept a lot and the plane had plenty of movies and TV shows to keep me occupied.
We had lunch downtown and then went to meet our host families. Jordan, Debbie, and I are staying with the Lathams (who are awesome). Rod Latham is actually from Cincinnati originally (crazy eh?).
Last night we had a Family Fun Night at the church which was a blast. Afterwards we went back to the house and watched Australian Football League (AFL or Footy) and attempted to learn the rules. It makes more sense than American football at least.
We had one more OneVoice practice this morning before our three services tomorrow. We're all really excited to start playing and singing.
Right now we're about to eat meat pies and I can't help but think about Sweeney Todd... It'll be alright though. I'm sure they'll be delicious.
