We’ve arrived in Australia!!
It’s Wednesday night and we are chilling with a couple beers and my cousin Joe. It’s the end of our first week here and we are already completely settled in. After a few days of bad weather at the start (rain and 20 degree cold), the sun has been shining and the surrealness of a hot December has set in. Joe has been an excellent chauffeur and chef, not only driving us around from Bilgola to Palm beach to Manly to Curl Curl and back home to Warrawee but also whipping up unbelievably delicious breakfasts and dinners . The Renshaws, and particularly Tess, have been such generous hosts, giving us a spacious room, showing us around the city and generally making us feel at home.
Apart from spending time at the beach, we enjoyed a lovely bbq at my Uncle Mark’s house, which gave me a chance to see my cousin’s beautiful sons who have grown up so much! We have also visited Darling Harbour, Circular Quay, The Opera House, The Rocks, Hornsby Mall and walked across the Harbour Bridge. All in all, we feel at home here in the sunshine, and are looking forward to next week when we will travel up to the Gold Coast with Joe and maybe even go skydiving..!
We’ll keep you posted
