So Long Sydney!

So in a few hours from now (Friday, May 8, 2:40pm) I will boarding my flight in Sydney (along with Chris and Grundy) and heading back to the states. 

First stop San Fran, where Chris has already been Googling the local cuisine in the terminals for a very, very American influenced lunch. Then we will head to Denver for roughly another two hours - which I am sure by the time we land I will be a bit hungry again.  No matter what terminal our plane is in, I will scurry over to terminal B and get myself an Auntie Anne's Pretzel AND the LARGEST Dr. Pepper they are legally allowed to serve...pretty sure the FAA has restrictions on the size of the beverages they can serve up these days. 

And finally around 5pm we will board our flight and head to the DMI. Where we will land with heaps of luggage around 9:30 Friday evening.

That being said please feel free to place your wagers on just how much our luggage will weigh for the return trip. I just checked back, and our combined weight for our checked bags on the way to Sydney was 280.5 lbs.  So please, place your bets and I will get the answer to you as soon as I have recovered from my jet lag.

Oh, and I know on the flight to Sydney the math was a real pain on trying to figure out what exactly happened to Thursday (it flat out disappeared on the way to Sydney). But get this...on the way home, Friday is nearly a 40 hour long day. Lovely.
