Started the day with a coffee with my colleague and good friend, Rob. Honestly, nothing beats catching up with friends from halfway around the world. We had a blast! After that, I wandered through the Queen Victoria Building—super classy, like the kind of place where I expect to find an old-timey butler offering me tea. […]

Kicked off the day with D doing some graceful laps in the pool and E lifting more than just their spirits at Auburn Swim Center. Fast forward to the evening, BBQ at Susan’s place—delicious food, delightful people, and a grand old time with the whole crew. But wait—there’s a plot twist… we tried Vegemite for

We gave the Fruit Warehouse a shot today. And while the produce was as fresh as a morning breeze, the “warehouse” part was a bit of a stretch—definitely more “fruit boutique” than warehouse. And don’t get me started on the prices—felt like I was buying golden apples from a secret orchard. But we did manage

Tackled the Sydney Harbour Bridge today. The views were next level—harbor, Opera House, the bridge itself. It’s honestly wild how humans can dream up and build such massive feats of engineering. We took the ferry back, snapping a few close-up pics of the Opera House, because, obviously, we’re tourists. Next, we walked over to Hyde

Stayed local today and strolled to the Sydney Market, thinking it’d be the twin brother of Queen Vic Market in Melbourne. Spoiler alert: I was wrong. It was more like the awkward cousin—definitely didn’t impress. Pass. Then we hit the aquatic center, where Daniel swam laps while I tried to look athletic (emphasis on tried).

Day one in Sydney! And, of course, we had to kick things off with the Opera House. I was literally pinching myself—never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d see it up close. And even though it felt like the sun was trying to roast us at 95 degrees, nothing could kill that buzz!
