Welcome back Juss!!!
Glad to see you are back that early and that you survive the flight, but wow. I had no idea the flight was that long!!!
;D And just thank God you didn't move to Canada. It's even colder here right now.
BTW, I kinda feel bad asking, but what is the state you are moving in again? I've got a real bad memory for the name of US state.

Congrats & Welcome back Juss!!
Ah Connecticut has been cold lately, all those snow storms they keep getting!!
I find that awsome how nice everyone was on the plane, I've heard most people hate it when they see some one bring a small child on the plane.
Glad to hear you made it to the US safe and sound.

Ah...ok. I'm not a salty/bitter taste person. It's more the bitter tha the salty...as I add salt to just about everything I eat. Not a fan of bitter.
Says you can get it in the States....order it from online?

No quarantine on Vegemite. Dunno what a Tim Tams is, but I doubt it's quarantinable too. On the customs form, just put "gift basket" and no one will even know what's in it. We don't care, really.

To stay warm...Columbia coats are really nice if you can afford them (they run $100+). They have a warm, fuzzy inner part and a rain- and wind-repellent outer part. You can unzip the pieces when it's not too cold out and use them separately or put them back together when it is. Gloves help a lot, especially if you're driving in your car and the steering wheel is cold or something. And if you're going to be walking a lot, you want a scarf and something to cover your ears--either a stocking hat or a fuzzy band to put around your head if you don't want to mess your hair up too much. When I have to walk ten or fifteen minutes across campus to get to class, if I have my coat, hat, scarf, and gloves, then only my legs and my face get cold.
TiVo is a digital recorder for television.
