Reunion! - Day 1

After Steph left me alone, 2 of my favorite girls came to Australia with their boys. The Chaos also came at the exact same time. We went from a couple of guests to having 6!

After uniting in Circular Quay, we went straight to the markets for some shopping and food tastes!


Of course, I had another kangaroo race. No video this time, but I think I lost again!


Jim hoisted Elaine up on her shoulders despite her protests. Luckily, she still smiles for photos regardless.


We gave our cameras to some other people to get a group photo. Unfortunately, the tourist didn't understand the concept of the zoom feature.


As we walked to the Opera House, we were lured into this street performer. By the time she fit herself into this box, half of our group managed to burn their feet.


Finally a GOOD group photo with the bridge.


After giving the tour of the Opera House, we headed to the Botanial Gardens. We ended up hanging out with some rocks and eating doritos.


Elaine tried to jump from one to the other.


Then, Adam tried to do a handstand on a tall rock.

Which propelled Jim to try to do one on a shorter rock. He didn't quite make it up straight.


Dave was looking all GQ.


Since it was getting close to dusk, the bats are were starting to fly around. We stood their watching the bats for a relatively long time before we decided it was time to eat.


After our long day in Sydney, we went back to Manly and convinced Charlie and Lily to throw a BBQ for us and our friends. The jetlagged crew barely made it to dinner before they ended up passing out. But don't worry, the jet lag caused them to wake up at 7am the next day!

Sorry for the delay in photos/posts! With the guests and work, we've barely had time to relax at home. I'm finally getting back into a routine. =)
