BYE BYE OZ...HERE WE COME KIWI'S!

WEDNESDAY - JANUARY 5, 2011 (Happy Birthday Grandson, Jon!) - Sydney airport - I will post as much as I can before our flight to Christchurch leaves-pictures!   Love, Sue & Geoff xo

TUESDAY – JANUARY 4, 2011 – Sydney – 8 PM – We spent our last day locally:
·         Walked to the Domain and on the way, saw a pig statue with slop dripping from its mouth in front of the Sydney Hospital—go figure!
·         Visited the Royal Botanical Gardens (beautiful!—loved the Asian garden with all the different bamboos and the pretty butterflies)


·         Saw part of the live “Wind in the Willows” production in the park
·         Walked along the harbor and saw the Opera House view where it is under the Harbor Bridge

·         Sat in Mrs. MacQuaries’ chair--carved stone (by the way) ^ (above)!
·         Walked back through town & saw a cupcake shop so insisted we have a "late" birthday cupcake and we did!  (Mine was chocolate or R, & Geoff's was caramel) YUM!
·         Had a lovely pizza, garlic bread and wine dinner for $24 at the Office Hotel
·         Back to our room to wash laundry and pack!
·         Geoff says to me tonight “I’ll tell you what, I haven’t seen any dog shite while here!”  J   That’s his special memory of our trip to Australia!  He makes me laugh!!!!
    (sorry, no doggie poop pictures!)
Off to Christchurch tomorrow morning….Love, Sue & Geoff xo
