RTW 2012 Swan Song Farewell

Well family, friends, and iPad trekkers I made it.  I arrived in Sydney this morning to an amazing view of the harbour (that's how the Aussies spell it) from the plane and the famous Opera House in the background.  It feels like home Australia has always had a special place in my heart.  The flight over from LAX came in record time 13hrs 30mins.  Those tail winds sure did help.  Anyways, I spent the time on the flight putting together the finishing touches on what I would like to call my Swan Song.  It's your theme song that plays when you are leaving a place, person, or show (aka the Sing-off) hence where I got the term from.  In any case it's about thanking those who have been a part of my life and telling them Im going to be okay.  So Happy New 2012 and enjoy my Swan Song.  Heading to New Zealand tomorrow...

    Hey Aaron, It's your cousin, John Marquez. It looks like Sherri and I might be in Cape Town the same time as you? We will both be there from April 19-28th! Sherri will actually be there for 2 months volunteering at the SANCOB rescue facility. Let me know how to reach you if you think you might have time to meet up? Looks like your having a blast! Good luck!!

    John
