It has been a little over two weeks since we returned from our trip and I still haven't recovered fully from the jet lag. Probably because we just got back last Monday from my sister, Katy's, wedding...plus daylight savings. Australia and New Zealand were absolutely amazing. Here are some pics to prove it...although they don't even do it justice.
