Chicago in Sydney.

We're off to see Chicago.

And who would have guessed Henry from 
Neighbours would end up in the West End.
Ahh Monna.


A happy Claire waiting for her pizza with extra garlic.

She certainly got that.

A DAY AS TOURISTS.

We've lived in Sydney for 6 months now and to be honest
we've done OK when it comes to the touristy things - 
but there is always more.

So today - the Sunday of the Queens Birthday weekend.

(Nice one Vic) - Although it's not actually our 
Queens Birthday - it's her official one - 
and Aussies get if off.

So a stroll through Hyde Park 
(smaller than the one in London)

A turtle spraying water from it's mouth. Cool.

So we went off to the Barracks.

Built in 1817. As a place to house convicts.

Each one slept in a Hammock.

Love a hammock. 


Then it was off to the Sydney Tower.

Not a bad view.


"I can see the Pub form here."

"Where?"
And the flat. It's about here---^ up a bit.

And I still can't find anywhere 
that sells stamps.

EVEN IN THE RAIN IT'S COOL.

It's wet in Sydney at the moment. But it's still cool.
We went for a little stroll up our road last night.
It's not far, but we thought it was worth showing you all. 

It's raining on the North side - and coming to the south side.
North Sydney in the rain.

Wrapping up warm.

VEGAS.

Ok so when Wiz asked me to be his Best Man, 
I sort of knew (well hoped) that we were going to
be living in Sydney when the time came round to it.
Of course I agreed. I had to. But Vegas popped into
 my head for the venue for the Stag do. 
Well it's sort of half way - I justified to myself. 
Anyway here are only a few moments from the 51 hours 
I spent with the boys. 
It took me 20 hours to get there 21 to get back. 
Then I had to get on a flight to Melbourne for a meeting. 
So in total 7 flights in 4 days. I've still not recovered now.
But it was worth every second. 

Ahh the boys.
Testing out if my camera really is waterproof.
The Stag and me.
