Sydney - Day 3

Having fun at Bondi Beach! It was the perfect day for the beach, warm, sunny and not too windy.







Seems like everyone thought it was a good day for the beach.
































After the beach, we met up again with Miki and went to the opera house and to the botanical gardens to see all neat stuff including the bats.










We found a statue of a faun...at least I think that's what they are called.

The kids pretended to be...well, something in a cage. Monkeys maybe?

Sydney - Day 2


Day two in Sydney we took the kids to Luna Park...Maeby calls it her party place. The kids had a great time but they were a bit sad to find out most of their favorite rides were only there on school holidays. Here is Maeby with Small Scott, I know he looks a little bit like Indiana Jones but we call him Scott. He comes on all of our adventures and he has become part of the family.

Maeby was pretty excited that she was allowed to ride more rides than Scott.


Our new family portrait... I love Melanie in this picture.











This had to be one of the longest rides in the world, we thought it would never end. One kid got sick and he was yelling and screaming so they had to stop the ride to let him off.




Melanie's favorite part of the day....SUGAR!




This picture Will took on top of the Farris Wheel.


Here's me pouting. My back still hurt from our New Zealand trip so I couldn't ride anything and 10 min earlier I dislocated my finger...It was a great day for me.



After Luna Park we took the kids to play in the sand at Manly Beach.


Watch closely...




That's all...










Liam set up a race course for all the kids, notice he's about to face plant in the sand.



See, told ya.


"Gee mom, this is just soooo fun."




Whenever we are at the beach, Spencer loves to just stand and watch the waves crashing up on the shore.





On the ferry back to Circular Quay from Manly.





They were pretty tired by the end of the day. It didn't take long for them to go to sleep.
