Life's a beach
OK. It looks smart but don't be too jealous. Our fish and chip lunch was shared with around 30 flies. The sand was the size and moisture level that gets into every possible crevice. The water was freezing and went from 30 cm to 1 metre within a couple of steps. We had no boogie boards, no nice wicker beach mats and factor 30 with a dodgy nozzle. Result? Nice red sunburn marks on every square cm we missed the next day. We compensated the next evening by going to Doyle's on the beach at Watson's Bay. Famous for the best and most expensive fish and chips (fly free) you can imagine and a breathtaking (excuse cliche) view of Sydney by night. If any of you are coming over here; we'll let you treat us to another meal there.

Nice to see you're coping with 'English abroad' status well... endless chips, sunburn and play parks. Keep up the good work.
A week in and no mention of aboriginal art!

Sounds like you are having a great time still! Although I imagine this is as much a function of not being as work as it is one of being on the other side of the world...
Jet boat brings back memories of NZ, but it looks like yours had more room to manoeuvre (sp?) in the bay than ours did in the canyon. I'm glad it was a serious adrenalin rush. If had been anything less, Tina might have asked for the money back on that too!
And Paul..., I just know it won't be long before we get lizards on rocks. The advantage being that they will be too expensive to post back as "gifts"!
:-)
Gret to see Alex making full use of his camera!
