Hellloooo

In case anyone was thinking something happened to us b/c there hasn't been many posts lately, just want to let you know we are alive and doing well, just really lazy.  To all our "followers" we promise to increase the posting and make it worth your wild to check in on us ; )  Tomorrow we start our open water scuba certification and you know the camera will be there to capture the moments.  Till then, <3 D and J

Living the Life

We’ve been silent these past few weeks b/c we’ve been enjoying the beautiful Sydney summer!  Emerging ourselves in the culture, Sydney Fest events, and getting to know our neighbourhood. 

Manly Beach.  Once the lifeguards are away you can break out the cooler.  Night was followed by a hilarious game where everyone writes a celebrity/famous person name on a post it, stick it on the forehead of the person next to you.  Then you go around, ask questions to try and guess your person.

Walking the Sydney Harbor Bridge. Adding another bridge walk to the achievement list!  After crossing to the Northern suburbs we checked out the Kirribilli market (pretty awesome vintage clothing/homemade goods) and took in the views at Bradfield Plaza.

   

Sydney Dance Company & Australian Orchestra in Parramatta Park.  Nice night with a few bottles of wine, an incredible full moon, and of course the live entertainment.

Australia Day! KPMG secondee bbq in Esplanade Park, Manly. Dan somehow found himself manning the grill and showed the Aussies what real buffalo wings are. 

Chinese New Year.  Foods stands with some pretty interesting food that neither of have ever tried if it weren’t for the free samples like achacha fruit and aloe juice.

Driving Range at Moore Park. Joanne has a shot of becoming a pro golfer. Sike!

7k Sun Run from Dee Why to Manly beach.  Hottest day in Sydney in 50 years!  Luckily run started at 6:45am but the hills were brutal. 

Random.  Drinks @ Opera Bar, meat and cheese @ Avido Restaurant in Paddington, drinks @ Grandmas in CBD (thanks for the tip Naysa!)
