hey sorry guys this entry is gonna have to be short cos this computer is very slow!! ok well weve done sydney and loved it!! done all the touristy things like the opera house, harbour bridge, darling harbour, the Rocks and many animal related things: went to the aquarium and the wildlife centre and of course the zoo...cos a city visit would not be complete without checking out the animals!!

jens favourite part of the trip-the lindt cafe!! oh my god a place dedicated to the wonderful world of chocolate! i got a hot choc which u made urself from hot milk and melted dark choc..heaven!!

Liz got very excited at the prospect of a Salsa lesson that we had heard about. Turned up at the place heels at the ready only to discover it only had a beginners class and not even Salsa at that but bachata. Was not impressed!!!! Turned it into a good night out though in Darling harbour esp as it was our goodbye night from Laura who we had been travelling with for a couple of weeks.

Another day was spent checking out the view of Sydney from the skytower. Went on this weird Oztrek first that kind of took you through different parts of Oz then went up to the viewpoint to look over the city and once more take way too many pictures. Taronga zoo gave us good views of the skyline too as it included a harbour tour...we like our boat trips!

got to see a lot of the city over our week..mainly from getting lost! tee hee! saw the shopping district and literally had to be dragged kicking and screaming from them by liz..booo! the nightlife seems pretty good but only limited it to 2 nights out..not bad! lots of men in suits to distract liz!!

also saw Harry Potter..good stuff! So we were fans of Sydney in the end esp as in the middle of winter it was actually pretty warm. Really nice sitting outside in cafes sipping cappaccinos and people watching on darling harbour-we did literally live there the entire time. After 6 days have now moved up the coast to Coffs Harbour and towards more beaches and sun. Will write again soon, sorry for no more photos, no where will let us-boo!!!! Liz and Jen xxxxxx
