The flight was tiring, but here I am at last, in Sydney! look! Here we are at last! The Sydney Opera House! It looks like shells! It’s wonderful and amazing! And I’m taking the plane to New Zealand on Tuesday. I’ll post again from there.

Paris is beautiful! We went on a great city tour. We also took a boat ride on the River Seine. And it’s nicer to just sit at a street cafe and watch the world go by. But to tell you a secret. Frank’s disappointed because no one can understand his French!

We’re staying at a farm in Utah. There is nearly nothing! It’s too quiet. Every morning, we get up really early, and we ride the horses. Then it’s breakfast and more riding—not my idea of fun! So, today I walked to a little town near the farm where they actually have Internet! Next week, we’re shopping in New York. I can’t wait!
