Merry Christmas Everyone! After we'd skyped all morning, we set off for Sydney opera house. We thought that there might nit be many people today, but there was still quite a lot if people even though it's Xmas day. The opera house was very cool, and with the harbour bridge in the background it was amazing. We took a lot of pictures of it! Right next to the opera house is Sydney botanical gardens, had a lovely walk around and lay under a tree in the shade for a w...

Today is Christmas Eve! So Christmas for Emelie! We didn't do much all morning, Xmas-skyped with some people, then got ready to leave the house. Later we were going to have a Swedish Christmas dinner "Julbord", at the Swedish church here in Sydney. So we got a bus over there and checked out the location.

We did eventually go to the post office to post our postcards an then had a look along our main street.We think we're in china/a...

We got up at six am to watch the sunrise over Ayers Rock. Emelie's legs were tired so she thought she'd sit on the fence but she's a bit stiff and unbalanced so she slipped and ended up hanging up side down, it was pretty funny haha! Then we went back to sleep before we got up again at 9.30 am to catch the bus to the airport were we checked in. The flight was ok and we arrived around 5 pm in Sydney. We called our host and she gave us an adress so we took the bus...
