Back in America!!!!

On the way home from Aussie we had a 6 day stopover in Tahiti and stayed on one of the islands called Moorea. It was a beautiful island!! We rested, layed out, snorkeled, and took it easy after the craziness of leaving Australia. The island was full of native Tahitians, most of who have NEVER left their island. They live in little huts on the turquoise ocean, most don't have running water...but it seems like they are content with life. Hibiscus plants, fruit trees, pineapple fields in every direction. It was a mountainous island - everything was green! We swam with sting rays and sharks (highlight)!!!
Then we flew onto LAX, then San Antonio last night. It felt so good to be on American soil. And there was definitely some Christmas cheer in the air...I didn't feel it at all in Australia or Tahiti. Got some good sleep last night and went through my HUGE pile of mail today. Guess who has jury duty bright and early tomorrow morning! The exciting part of going through my mail....I got a $5 gift certificate to Starbucks and an Aveda birthday gift.
