We are safely in Australia and Cassia did really well on the fight over. She slept most of the flight and was only a little fussy on the way down when the pressure hurt her ears. She really is amazing and we were so blessed by the answer to our (and others) prayers.
We spent a week in Canberra settling in and visiting people and then flew again (a much more reasonable 3 hr flight) to Port Douglas for a holiday.
Cassia did wonderfully on the flight, and on the bus trip, she has been charming people wherever she goes.
We all really enjoyed the hot weather (it was perfect) and Cassia went for her first swim!
We also spent a day on the Great Barrier Reef snorkeling with Nemo and his friends. It was absolutely amazing and Cassia loved her first boat ride (and the semi-submersible boat too!) and was very happy to see her first shark, turtle and lots and lots of fish!
Now we are back in Canberra for a few days before the main event (Uncle Chris' wedding) up in Sydney next Friday.
