October 2nd. New York State!!!!

Grandma and Papa George with Uncle Doug and the kids

We have safely arrived in the USA.. And, our kids are having so much fun realizing how different life is here from Australia. Chris and I grew up here so we don't always see all the differences. but, our car rides are anything but quiet.  The whole time we drive, we hear from the back seat...

- Did you see that?
- Wow!!! look at that HUGE truck!
- There are no fences here!
- Did you see that school bus?
- Look at all the trees with coloured (australian spelling!) leaves?

Grandma Wilday and Aunt Nicole with the kids

The list is non ending.. And, then the super market... our visit to TOPS.. was nothing short!  We entered the cereal aisle and, the kids were so overwhelmed. In Australia we have a short aisle of cereal. So, I can't wait till we go to Walmart... or Wegmans... or some other stores.   The kids are amazed by the cheap prices.... and the variety of food, and candy, and ice cream, and so many options to choose from.  Let's not forget.. the apple cider and the donuts!
