We woke fairly early, Finn was sick and throwing up. This was not a good start - how would we get him on the plane? He had been unwell most of the night. The rest of us were fine but he was pale and kept vomiting on and off. We took the van back to the depot and dropped it off. None of us were sad to se it go. After 18 days it had become quite cramped and confining. We were ready for home. Poor Finn was a champion and managed to get through the flight to Adelaide without being sick. Things eased and we'd gotten him medicine at the airport as well. In Adelaide, he slept on a lounge while we waited for our final flight home. When we landed in Melbourne we dragged ourselves out to meet the kids Dad who was picking us up and taking us home. Dad had already told Mum he'd been and gotten her some supplies and food so that once home she too could fall in a heap and recover. She'd found the humidity particularly challenging and unsettling so she was glad to get home to her own space. We did the same, fell in a heap and began the recovery. An amazing trip, but tiring. An adventure, for sure.
