Update #8
 
We just boarded our Qantas 747 Longreach back to Los Angeles.  My daughter is taking some last photos of Sydney's Skyline and from our take off.
 
Soon the pilot will move the thrust levers of his airplane forward and the pressure in the seats will keep increasing, while the co-pilot calls out the important numbers as usual.
 
Bye for now :)
