Considering that our trip was about 24 hours door to door: Portland, SF, Sydney then Melbourne; Sofia did fantastic! We meet up with Sofia's fan club in SF, Mimi & Poppi, Jim & Cathy, Loretta, Sally, Nicole & Tia all came out to send us off in style! From SF we flew with Mimi & Poppi, which was a real treat.
Here are some fun shots from our trip.
