Another sunset-over-Harbour-Bridge shot??!

Yes, sorry, just can't let this beauty go undocumented especially when it comes at the end of a hard day at work. I'm really going to miss this commute home. Not that the South Station T platform isn't a sight to behold also, but still.

Gotta love Sydney buses

Yes, they are expensive ($7 to get to and from work, on the BUS and more than double that to take the ferry), the drivers are mean (I've banged on many a door after sprinting for the bus only to have the bus driver pretend not to see or hear me by some miracle), and the maniacal nature of Sydney motorists means you take your life into your hands with every ride. But, you can't beat the propensity of the drivers to play music to try to take the edge off of an otherwise unpleasant experience. Tonight was especially awesome as we enjoyed the musical stylings of Air Supply's Can't Fight this Feeling. I've been humming it since I hopped off the bus hours ago. Thanks Mr. Cranky Busdriver, you made my day.

What would we do without Lucy?

Friends old and new

So nice to see Jo here in Sydney this weekend. Lucky for us, she has lots of reasons (especially a new baby nephew) to escape the snow in Boston and come visit sunny Sydney. She was generous enough to share some of her precious few hours here visiting with us.

In new friend news, Abbey has announced that she'll be leaving all of her toys here in Sydney when we move home so that she'll "have room to bring Robyn to America with her in her suitcase." It's going to be sad to see them say goodbye to each other :(

Best way to see a movie

Must put this on the list of "things to do before we leave Sydney"

Little tikes on boats

What is cuter than a bunch of little kids having a sailing lesson? Nice way to grow up! Much better than soccer in the New England rain.

Cuteness

How lucky are the girls to have someone like Lucy who is fun and patient enough to make their dinner in creative designs? Not to mention the time it takes to do those hairstyles!

Still my favorite run

Despite the availability of a million great places to run, walk or just wander around slowly this one that is right in our neighborhood is still my fave.

Morning commute surrounded by beauty

There is still goodness in the world

What's amazing about this is that this person took the time to pick up the lost item from the sidewalk, go to their office to type up and print off copies of this sign, and then return to the street corner the same morning to tape it up in several spots.
