Daisy's first trip to the cinema today. Despite being a little over-whelmed at first she really got into the swing of it - even shouting at the screen at one point and making most of the audience jump!
All this grown up stuff is hard work!

April 6: The Lorax
Daisy's first trip to the cinema today. Despite being a little over-whelmed at first she really got into the swing of it - even shouting at the screen at one point and making most of the audience jump!
All this grown up stuff is hard work!
April 1: Afternoon in the park
Today was a beautiful day. We spent the afternoon wandering around the botanic gardens making the most of the warm autumn sunshine. Every time we visit the park we find something new to see. Today it was this amazing moreton bay fig tree which must be as old as Australia!
After a stroll around the foreshore we called in to inspect the new Museum of Contemporary Art on the harbour facing the Opera House. Daisy gave it a 7/10 - must try harder!

March 25: Fish & Chips at North Head
Daisy wanted 'chippies' for tea tonight so rather than eating in the house, or on the beach, we took our seafood box up to North head and had an evening picnic looking back across the harbour. The weather was pretty good this weekend but there were clouds gathering over the city. More rain tonight!
March 24: Taking the strain
Daisy was exhausted after climbing the hill up to North Head on the bike.
(Nick had to cycle around for another hour after this just to keep her asleep!)
March 20: Manly from above
Nick took this photo on a flight back from Lismore. It was so clear you could see the whole of Sydney right up to the Blue Mountains, but the view of Manly really shows how narrow the strip of land is between the Pacific & Harbour. You can make out the Corso running from the wharf back to the Steyne Beach and you can see the ferry in the foreground. Our house is in the middle somewhere!
March 14: Meet the Neighbours part 3
The worlds largest butterfly?
(although Nick's enormous hands make it look normal size!)
March 10: Taste Of Sydney
The annual Taste of Sydney festival was held this weekend with a food fair at Moore Park, as well as other events all over the city.
Being the original home of the slow food movement, the taste of sydney festival is really popular so tickets are rationed per session. We were lucky to be given some tickets from our friends Kirsty & Anton who had a stand promoting their new Sunshack Cider. We managed to sneak a few samples too!
The festival was packed with the best local chefs and restaurants with plenty of tasty treats to sample. Our only complaint was that we didn't have long enough!
