Aussie Day '10

We went down to the park to celebrate Australia Day.


This is a very big holiday in OZ. It's all about family and friends.


Boys around the barbie. No shrimp though.


Juice and I decided to dress as Aussie as we could. Juice even had a Aussie bottle cooler.


And I clearly won the dress up! I went a little over the top - no surprise there.

Ocean Swim Season 09/10

Something Juice and I having been looking forward too, has arrived - Ocean swim Season.



Before the 2.4km Coogee Island swim.


The 2.5km Cocktoo Island swim is a classic swim is the Sydney harbour.


It got a little crazy near the cans at the 1.8km Bilgola


Struggling through the surf


The conditions for the 2km Newport swim weren't great for spectators, rain and wind.


At Bondi for the 2km North Bondi Roughwater

New Years 2009

One of the advantages of living in Waverton, is it's only a 5min stroll from home to one of Sydney's hidden gems for viewing the fireworks.


Took a few drinks and snacks down and waited to for the show to start.
Due to the fact that my camera hasn't been able to take great firework snaps I've placed a few from some other Sydney Siders


As always the show went on for over 15mins


The conditions were perfect.


If you can ever make it to Sydney during December make sure you stay long enough to see the fireworks.
