A Visit From The 'Rents!

Here in Australia, I've enjoyed a pleasant visit from my parents! They are both well-versed travelers in their own right, and although I'm sure they'll tell you their primary purpose of their trip was to visit me, they're squeezing a bit more into their time here.

After four days in Cairns (including a trip to the Cairns Zoo, Great Barrier Reef, and Daintree Rainforest) they're flying to Sydney, spending a day there, then flying to New Zealand's South Island (where my dad hopes to squeeze a ski run or two in), then back to Sydney for four more days to visit a friend, then back to the US.

I almost think they're trying to out-do me :)
