On our last night in Hawaii, we stayed at the hotel for a few hours, then left there and flew home on QF 4 at 12:30am on the 1st of June.
We arrived in Sydney at 6:25am on the 2nd of June - we'd skipped a whole day!
Mr Cartan picked us up at the airport and brought us home. After driving on the wrong side of the road for five weeks, it was very strange to be back in Australia. Several times during the drive home I thought Mr Cartan was turning down the wrong side of an intersection!
Since we arrived home so early and were already up and ready, we went to school that day! Everyone thought we were very strange. But we were still pretty excited from the trip, so didn't really have any jet lag.
Mum added up the costs of the whole trip - it came to around $9000 for the five weeks. On the mainland, we travelled 5500 miles in the hire car. Mum and Dad took around eight hundred photos!
For me, it was the most amazing and memorable holiday I've ever been on!
