Ok, ok, I'll post an epilogue. I truly hope you've enjoyed this trip as much as our heroes!
Steve took one last gander over his work and shut his laptop. Eyeing his watch, he noticed they still had another 9 hours to go on the flight back to Dallas. Though he thought chronicalling their vacation would take most of the journey, once again he was proven wrong.
The last bit of the day's sun was peeking over the horizon, though it wouldn't be long before it appeared again. They were crossing the date-line just now, the begining of the same day they just came from. Steve was feeling jet-lagged just thinking about it.
The rest of the Avengers were zonked, having woke up at 4 am to catch an early flight out to Melbourne, then to Sydney a few hours later. Steve didn't anticipate reaching home until late this coming up evening. Pepper was sending Happy to pick them up, thank god, Steve didn't think anyone would be up for driving after this trip.
Gazing at his backpack, Steve decided to pull out his camera and flip through the photos. There were some from the reef, some from holding the koala in Kuranda, the 68 photos he wasted on that mesa (he rolled his eyes as he flipped through those), some from surfing, and some from hiking, but the last one was his favorite. Sure, he had just been scared out of his wits, but everyone's sincere smile made it totally irrelevant.
"I wonder where we'll go next year?" Steve wondered. "Hmmm...I hear Norway is great in the summer..."
So have I, Steve, so have I... Ser deg i Norge!
