Dick and Millie Loucks recently returned from their month long trip 'down under' to Australia, New Zealand, and the Fiji Islands. In Australia, they went to Melbourne, flew to Adelaide, flew to the Outback, which included Alice Springs, where they visited Aire's Rock; had a barbecue in the bush; learned about the Aborigines culture, then flew to Cairns, Port Douglas, and then Sydney, where they took a harbour cruise, and visited the Sidney Opera House. From there, they flew to Christchurch, New Zealand where they visited the Antarctic Museum and the Botanical Gardens. Christchurch is the United States Base to Antarctica. From there they went to Queenstown, on to Milford's Sound, then to Rotorua and then to Auckland. From there, they flew to the Fiji Islands before returning to the USA. 'It was a once-in-a-lifetime trip and we were very happy to get back home.'
