Ashfield Manor Sydney

... were a few others on tap that I must go back to try and the food looks good to. It is the oldest brewery in Sydney and still to this day brews their beer on site, mostly.

On Wednesday I went to the Australian Museum where they had an Egyptian Pharaoh exhibit which is only here for a few weeks. They had a lot of mummy's both in and out of their caskets, as well as artifacts and statues from different periods of Egypt. Also they had ...

Hello everyone!

For several reasons I have now decided to write a blog instead of writing emails.. I hope that it will be interesting and that many of you will read it regularly and reply.

If you want to receive emails whenever I update something just send me a short message and I will add you to the adress book (unfortunalety, the ...

... Gardens (beautiful) and all the way north to Mrs Macquarie's Point. We sat in the long-awaited Mrs Macquarie's "Chair" as we had been intrigued by what this was - actually a couple of steps and a little monument. From here we leapt about on some rocks that jutted out into the sea, and could see out to Fort Denison island and the north shore, as well as back west to the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Walking south on the west edge of the Gardens alongside Farm Cove ...

... pretty tired. Went through the Southern Oceans exhibit. Saw leopard seals and fairy penguins. Did a little shopping at the zoo. Tyler got some plastic penguin toys and an emu chick stuffed animal. Bought a stuffed animal dingo as a b-day present for her best friend.

Spectacular weather all day. Not a cloud in the sky. Temperature was perfect.

By lunchtime we were pretty beat. Hopped back on the ferry to ...

... a relaxing swim in another beautiful lake, known as Lake Mackenzie. As you’ll see from the pictures, we had a Dingo visit us here, which was cool, although you have to be careful to remember they are wild and although they look like our domestic dog, they are actually more like the Asian Wolf and have, famously, taken a couple of small children recently. Once back at the huts, we all ate and had a couple of drinks and got to know each other a bit better. Day two started ...

... of fresh fish such as scallops, octopus, oysters, calamari and a few other types. I am really enjoying the new found taste for Salmon and smoked salmon. I was lucky enough to have the head chef (Greg) give me a couple of slices of sirloin steak to try, cooked rear and blue. I must say the blue steak taste better and am now having full blue steaks because its just so much more juicer (sorry Lizzie and all the other veggies out there but ...

After hectic last minute rush-around, we finally hit the airport about three hours early. Unable to check-in online so needed to try to get good seats early. Flight left on time at 4:35pm. Bankok at 1:30am is a sterile place to spend 90 minutes to ...

... concept I am totally not used to. Here in Australia, my only family is my immediate family- with the few exceptions of a couple of cousins twice removed. Maybe subconsciously I'm doing all this to find a place of belonging? Who knows?! I'm so nervous about meeting them all. Will they like me? Will I like them? Will I find things in me that just make sense when I'm there? Or will I be left thinking that, just like here, I straddle two very ...

... Tag Drei besichtigte ich Chinatown und kaufte mit ein paar neue Klamotten in einem riesigen Einkaufszentrum, in dem eine große Anzahl klein**** Geschäfte unt**gebracht waren. In Chinatown gibt es eine Menge asiatisch** Geschäfte und natürlich Restaurants. Das Essen ist hi** relativ günstig und so beschloss ich hi** mein Mittagessen einzunehmen. Am Nachmittag besuchte ich das Aquarium und anschließend den Wildlifepark. Im Aquarium gab es v**schiedene Becken mit unt ...

... corridors and alleys of this
historic area founded by the anglican settlers and convicts. It's
totally a sister city of Boston since the same influence and
infrastructure from the Irish and English built this area the same way
they built Boston's waterfront district, so we felt at home here. We
