  1. This was delightful! I couldn't watch it live -- since I'm west of you, it's still fairly prime family time for me. But I enjoyed the discussion and see the hosts.

    1. Thanks for watching, Beth! I know--it was hard (actually, impossible) to find a time when everyone could watch it live.

  2. Haven't watched your whole episode yet, will have to be in segments. But didn't realise you'd been to Australia Amy, how awesome is that! Loved reading your link on Australia:) So you have family here? (in Aust). We're 7hrs north of Manly, but our College son lives in Sydney and learnt to surf on the Many beach

    1. Oh yes, we absolutely loved it! A trip of a lifetime, for sure! Mike's sister and her family lived in Manly for about nine months, but they're back in the States now (they were there for work). That's why we decided to go though--we knew we would never again have such a perfect opportunity to see that part of the world.
