Jo arrives in Sydney...

... much to our enormous delight... She made her own way to Manly on the ferry to walk to Shelley beach following in mum and Mike's footsteps. Pity about the 1000's of school kids on their first day of holiday.

Our new dining room table

It is made of old railway sleepers. Isn't it beautiful. It comfortably seats 8 so great for dinner parties.

Stopping off at Hawkesbury River

We stopped at the Hawkesbury River on the way to Muogamarra Nature Reserve. It is beautiful and we intend to visit again and stay longer soon. As you can see, there were some lovely rock formations.
