Spent 12 days in Sydney altogether...the first two days were so sunny but after that it was cloudy and very wet! Met up with Joe, Fiona and Dave, so good to see them all again. We walked to the harbour a few times and saw the bridge and the opera house. Also went to Hyde Park Barracks, the Crime Museum, the Botanical Gardens and the Sydney Aquarium.
Fell in love with the city, although the rain meant we were stuck indoors a bit. Fiona and I did developed a love for Starbucks New York Cheesecake though...yum!
On Wednesday 18th Feb, Fiona and I flew to Tasmania. Yvonne and Brian very kindly agreed to let us stay with them. I took Fiona to Salamanca Market and in to town, then at the weekend Yvonne and Brian took us to Seven Mile Beach, Richmond and Kangaroo Bluff. Was really nice to see some more of the area. Apart from that we've been a little lazy this week...we even watched the Oscars coverage for about 8hours on Monday!
Still job hunting, but there's a real lack of work at the moment, both in the cities and on the farms. Fingers crossed we'll find something soon though!
