Just a quick note to upload a couple of pictures and to say thanks for the various birthday greetings, and to say a special thanks to Rosie for the birthday money - it was spent on a trip up the Sydney Tower!
We are now packing up our suitcases after a week with Richard & Amelia as we leave for the airport at 7am tomorrow to head to Melbourne for 4 nights...
Over the weekend, Richard & Amelia drove us around the area to see a few sites, including Bondi Beach (which was a little cold and 'Brighton-esque' to be fair!) and a country pub out in the middle of nowhere! It was capped by a Barby on Sunday night which was a good end to the weekend and a good birthday celebration, knowing we would all be too knackered today to have a big night!
Today was spent in the city; starting with another physio session on my back (getting better but still painful!) before heading up the Sydney Tower and then going on a City Sightseeing Bus. We then hopped on a ferry before walking back across the Harbour Bridge for a birthday beer!
Next
stop Melbourne; assuming we can get to a computer we will update you again before we head to NZ on Saturday!
Bye for now!
