Paulie, Giraffes, bridge
Me, 2 giraffes and a bridge.Tuesday 26th- 1st Jan
Ok so as Paul was here I became really bad at diary writing so have no idea what we did on each day.
Anyway we came back to Sydney on Boxing Day to mums Christmas present of a lovely hotel right in the center of the city. We had to wait for the video shop to open at midday to get our deposit back so we did another loop drive. Paul got into the Australian spirit by going into the video shop with out any shoes on. When we got back to Sydney we missed the bridge turning and went under the tunnel and in a rush to get the car back by 2pm we almost had our first argument but only almost!!!
We took advantage of the Christmas sales and on Thursday we went to the zoo (the photos are on Paul’s camera) which was a fun day and the elephants, seals and of course giraffes were very entertaining.
We had some lovely evening meals out which was topped of by dinner in the Opera house which was beautiful and very tasty!!
On the 31st Paul decided to try one of my hobbies and
Paulie and T waiting for boat
Paulie and T. Ahhhh. Waiting for the boat to the ZOO! we went Scuba diving together at Manly beach. The guy was really helpful and paul really enjoyed chasing the fishes and seeing Waloolo Sharks. Stell and Wayne- we'll be double diving when I get back!! there should be some photos coming soon on- http://www.letsgodiving.com.au/default3.htm
New years eve was spent in the Royal Botanical Gardens in a private area with a very tasty dinner and music that was a little weddingy!! You know cheesy! The fireworks were spectacular and I’m glad we didn’t have to fight for a space to see them. We both drunk a bit too much wine but I managed to navigate us home.
Paul had to leave on the 1st and I don’t think the head ache or sick feeling helped. Luckily we didn’t need to leave for the airport until midday.
