Just A Bunch Of Wholesome Airport Reunion Pics From Today That Will Make You Piss Tears

Grab your tissues and get your micellar water ready, the reunion pictures from Australia’s first international tourist arrivals in fkn ages will melt both your mascara and your heart.

Australia’s international borders have *finally* reopened to fully-vaxxed travellers after almost two years.

Our borders first closed to tourists in March 2020. Remember when we were all baking sourdough and picking up watercolour painting???? Feels like a lifetime ago.

Since then, whole babies have been born and grown into the toddler stage. If that means nothing to you, then consider this: our borders haven’t been open since before Tom Holland and Zendaya were a confirmed couple. Wild, I know.

Of course, you can imagine there were some emotional scenes at airports across Australia today as family members reunited with their friends and loved ones.

Some of these pics are nothing short of sob-worthy so if you, like me, need a brain cleanse, please enjoy these wholesome moments below.

A little girl called Charlotte Roempke reunited with her grandpa Bernie Edmonds at Sydney’s International Airport and I can’t stop thinking about how she’s probably grown up so much in the two years he hasn’t seen her.
