Well it is all over and we have finally made it home. The trip home was almost as confusing as the trip up. All went well as far as Hong Kong where the flight home was cancelled. This meant an extra day there. Luckily there are a bunch of boy toy shops to be seen. The next day there was no connection to Brisbane so we had to go to Sydney. Of course World Youth day is happening and the Pope is coming. This meant no seats available to Brisbane. We were able to get a couple on different flights and all arrived home mid afternoon. Thank you all for your comments and Hero mail. The boys really appreciated it as it gave them some connection with home. Tune in again next year starting mid June.

Congratulations Nathan - 3rd overall! Congrats also to the organisers and especially the web site organiser(s) - the web site was very informative and kept very up-to-date - almost felt like we were there watching the action live. Good job to Andrew, Mike and Julie too. Submitted By: Grant J

This is exciting stuff - edge of the seat & dangerous after a bottle of red with good friends! We're watching the times come in with no more than 10 minutres delay. Good stuiff from the comp organisers. Doing some back of the hand calcs and it's looking OK for Nathan at this stage! Go Andrew / Nathan !!!! Submitted By: Grant J

Hey guys, great effort over there - keep it up no matter what the weather brings. It's inspiring for us, too, at Rieti, to see you doing well. We've got 3 days left of practice before our comp starts, so keep giving us inspiration! Submitted By: Allan Barnes

Nathan and Andrew - Looks like a lot of superscratch weather there, you are really doing great in trying conditions. Hope you get a boomer to show everyone what Aussies can really do! I'm enjoying the pictures and the blogs. Keep looking and keep it safe. Submitted By: John Welsh
