God, we did a lot in Sydney, so its getting split up into 2008 and 2009.
We had a good start to life in Sydney, with Lesley being the best finishing girl in the pool comp on the first night we were there and won us a bottle of champagne and our mate Melvin won the overall thing and a $50 bar tab, so we ended up in a fair state!
After checking out the bridge and Opera house, it was Christmas day before we knew it. Felt pretty weird, we had a nice wander round Darling Harbour in the morning then down Bondi Beach for a dance music festival and Christmas dinner, so a wee bit different to usual!
We had a day at the rcaes on Boxing, we go in free for being british (strange), really good day and about $60 profit for the day so all good. We checked out a couple of the museums of which there seems to be millins. I turned into an old man and checked out the Monet exhibition that was on, all of his famous paintings, wanted to see if a good few million quid worth of art was any good.
Hogmanay we queued for a few hoursa to get into Mrs McQuaries point to see the fireworks off the bridge, the view you get of them on the telly. we got a really good spot with a good view of most of the bridge and opera house. there was a family fireworks display at 9pm then the biggies at midnight, they were as good as they look on the telly, amazin!! Happy New year to eveyone reading this!!
