October 21: Sculpture by the Sea

This weekend saw the start of the annual sculpture by the sea exhibition with over 100 sculptures lining the coastal walk between Bondi and Bronte.  For some unknown reason we decided it would be a good idea to visit on the first Sunday and the walk was packed!  The good weather seemed to bring everyone out to see what was going on.  There were some really interesting sculptures this year but Our favourites were the forrest of bamboo windmills and the little people living in the cracks between the rocks!

October 13: Santi's Birthday Party

Santiago (Buzz Lightyear) is Daisy's best friend in day-care, and today was his 3rd birthday party.  Gabriel and Cecilia invited all of their friends to a party in the park, and as they are from Mexico the centre piece was a proper pinata (football of course).  Daisy hadn't seen a pinata before but she had a good go at clobbering it with the broom handle, and seemed to know exactly what to do when all the sweets fell out!  The party carried on well into the evening but Daisy had to head off before the end as she was exhausted!

October 07: Peas in a pod!

October 01: Foam party?

We went for a walk into the city today and discovered another artwork from the 'art & about' event.  This one seemed to involve emptying a bottle of washing-up-liquid into the main water feature on Martin Place.  The kids all loved it but the Artist obviously hadn't thought about all the pro's and con's and Nick had to pull a little lad out of the foam after he'd taken one step too far and fallen into the fountain!  Luckily it was only about 4 inches deep but he could have been in there all day!!
Daisy was also showing off her new shoes....which now look like she's been wearing them for a year!
