In getting to Australia, I didn’t anticipate cold weather. I only packed one pair of jeans and after my luggage fiasco (see below), I had not clean clothes. Thanks goodness for friends and a shared wardrobe. :) My dear, dear friend Britt graciously lent me some legging and a jacket. This sweatshirt jacket is my new favorite and I will be sporting it often! In the evening is still gets quite chilly, so layers are my friend. :)
Now for the luggage fiasco… Upon getting my suitcase in Sydney I noticed a strong fish odor, but thought it was the airport. Upon getting to my house, I dumped the bags in my room and went out. After coming back a couple hours later, the room smelled AWFUL!!! Needless to say, the fish odor was coming from one of my suitcases.
I opened up the suitcase and 75% of my clothes were wet, many soaked in the lovely fish liquid. My Phil Wickham “True Love” tee now has dark stains on the sides and under the armpits- what are the chances?!? I think they were transporting fish and the cooler must have leaked and I my suitcase was conveniently placed to absorb the wetness. haha. I am stil waiting to hear back from Quantas Airlines to see if they can hook me up with a free flight. Man, I really want to go to New Zealand, so I hope so! :)
Grace & Peace!
