Landed!

So, after more than 24 hours of travel we finally landed in LA about 5pm on Wednesday local time (or 11am Thursday back in Oz). The trip was arduous but pretty uneventful.

Sleep was hard to come by on the plane, as every position was about as uncomfortable as the last, but we all made it here safe and sound.

After checking into our digs, we had a short wander about Santa Monica and decided to eat at a very classy establishment you may be familiar with? Hooters? Can I just say it is no wonder why obesity is such an issue in this country as I could almost feel my arteries clogging up as I devoured my deep fried pickles, chilli cheese fries, chicken strips and BBQ ribs. YUM!

Full to the brim I'll go to sleep happy and look forward to meeting Mickey Mouse tomorrow.

Hope you are all well, more updates to come!

Phase 1 complete!

So, after a few delays due to inclement weather in Sydney, we are now at Sydney airport WAITING to board our next flight to Melbourne. From Melbourne we have a few hours stop over and then it's on to LA!

Nothing exciting happening so far (hence why I'm writing a blog so early in the trip) but it's early days.

Tomorrow we hit Disneyland and Friday's mission is to go celebrity spotting at Santa Monica and Venice Beach.

All 17 girls are accounted for and fed, so we have achieved something today!

I'll keep you posted!

It's almost time!

5 more sleeps now until we hit the road (or the air) for the trip of a lifetime!

In LA we'll be going to Disneyland and Santa Monica, in San Francisco we'll be going to Alcatraz and of course playing in the Netball America National Tournament, and in Las Vegas...well, I can't tell you about that because what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas!

Watch this space for updates...
