Okay, so after three weeks we finally remembered to bring our camera out with us! You know, to prove we are in Sydney and not just hiding out in our basement. Truth is, we've been running all over the city--zoo, museums, aquarium, beach, parks--and we can't get enough of this place. We knew we'd love living in Sydney, but we seem to find something new to love about it everyday. I once watched a TV show that described what it was like to have a relationship with a city. It was a foreign but cool concept to me at the time. But I kind of get it now. It's too bad we wont be here long enough to work into anything long lasting. :( But rather than mourn our city fling, We'll show you all how great it is!
Thia is our view from our balcony. The iconic Opera House is in the background and between us and it are the Royal Botanic Gardens that are so so fun to go running in. Right of the Opera House is the harbor over which we take a ferry to go to the beaches and th zoo. In fact, you can sort of see the zoo. It's that green patch beyond the water on the right hand side of the picture. It's the coolest zoo! Its all on a hill and covered in trees (which is why you cant see any animals. Well, that and the incredible distance from which I took the picture).
This is Ruby at Manly Beach. She actually loves playing in the sand more than in the water and that says a lot because she LOVES playing in the water :)

Ah, my cute family . . .
Okay, that's it for now. And I promise to bring my camera out with us again sometime in the next three weeks :)
