Day 3

We finally got a good nights sleep last night and getting over the jet lag, and are now settling in to vacation mode.

We had a good weekend mainly visiting family. Saturday was spent playing around my brothers house with his kids. Gavin is in heaven with two boys to play with, that have lots of guns and swords. Gabbie is having fun with her older girl cousins braiding hair, and doing other girl stuff.

Our major outing was going to my sisters house out in the western suburbs of Sydney. The biggest part of this journey was that I had to drive and to make matters worse I was driving my brothers two week old car. Thankfully we made it there and back without any problems, but we probably made a few drives mad as we drove a little slow. The ten cousins had a great time playing together once again yelling and screaming playing all sorts of games.

Sunday we had our first trip in to the city on the train. We heading down to the Opera House and at place called Circular Quay where all the ferry's from around the harbour dock. It was a lot of fun looking around but also a little cold, so the kids spent more time complaining about the weather. To warm up and get something to eat we had our first true blue Aussie meal out. Okay, well actually we went to Starbucks and had coffee and hot chocolate. After our big trip on the train and into the city, it was time to meet more of my family, so we went to my Aunties house for a really Aussie BBQ. No shrimp on the barbie, but bangers on the barbie(sausages). Lots of fun seeing all the relatives but the kids were a little overwhelmed.

Well today will hopefully be another good day, at least it's nice and sunny.
