Sydney Aquarium

It was raining on the last full day George was in town, so we decided to head to the Sydney Aquarium to stay dry and amuse ourselves. Afterwards we went over Star City (casino in Sydney) and played a few rounds of roulette. Unfortunately my camera battery died and I don't have any pic's from the casino. I am sure I will be back, so I'll be sure to take some pic's next time. In the meantime, here are some fun pic's of our sea friends!


Long-neck turtle

Giant grouper - almost as big as George's head!

Lego pirate!

Giant animatronic shark and giant Lego shark in the background

Florescent Jellyfish!

Da dum, da dum, da dum - Jaws! (actually not a Great White, but still scary!)

Check out those rows of teeth!

Leopard print sting ray!

George the underwater explorer!

Pinocchio fish - someone's been telling lies...

This is the only picture from Star City. We orders "Pistola's" from the bar - tequila shot with a Tecate chaser!


Boys (and Britainy) Night Out!

I was so lucky to have a couple of friends in town this weekend. We had a bit of a pub crawl on Saturday night and met up with my new friend Leo ( side note: Leo took over my room in the apartment I moved out of).

I wanted to make sure I documented the night so I made George take pictures with me every step of the way, from when we got on the bus in Bondi to when we met up with Sean and Leo - he was a good sport. Here are some pic's from the night!

Sean G in the House!

I am so excited that one of my oldest and dearest friends is in OZ!

We have known each other since kindergarten when we were 5! It is so good to have a familiar face here in Australia. Hopefully I'll have some fun pic's from this upcoming weekend if we get into any shenanigans. Below is a pic of Sean and I, along with a pic of random people exercising outside my train stop this morning (they were promoting some sort of insurance - random, yet funny).

Sunday Outing

It's been a while since my last post, but to be honest not much has been going on. This past weekend I was able to get out of town for a little drive down the coast with my friend Lauren. I've posted some random pic's of our day below.

The next few weeks I should have more to write about. I have a couple of friends coming to town, I'm moving to a new place closer to the beach, I'm doing the photo shoot that I won on my birthday and I am hopefully going to take a trip up north to Byron Bay! So fun times ahead!
