Day 1 in Sydney

Leena went for accomodations with a view. Check the window shot. Score. We're in the Potts Point section of Sydney.

We didn't get a Holiday card out this year, so here you go... Happy Holidays!

We walked through the Royal Bottanical Gardens to the Opera House and caught the 01:00 ferry to Manly beach without a minute to spare. Snapped this one from the ferry.

We enjoyed a drink at the Fountain Cafe in the early evening.

Leena wonders: "How is the Aussie Chardonnay?" (Yum.)

We mastered boiling water in the Southern hemisphere and enjoyed dinner with our lovely view. We forced ourselves to stay up until 21:00 before glorious sleep...
