Sam scored her first hockey goal!
Here she is being chased by some hardy Oakhurst players - none of whom stand a chance against our golden girl...

Early morning ramble around the city
A lovely early morning with Charles ambling about the city, taking photos of the morning sun reflecting off the buildings.
Sydney Barracks
The Sydney Barracks, built in 1819, are a historic site in the heart of Sydney that originally housed British soldiers and later served as administrative offices. Today, they stand as part of the Hyde Park Barracks Museum, offering visitors a glimpse into Australia's colonial past and convict history.

Kiama
Ally and I camped at Kiama for a night to get out of Sydney. We went to a dog friendly camp site and Mack was a very happy camper. The wind blew like crazy throughout the night (well it is winter after all) and kept us awake for hours as it tried to rip our fly sheet off, but otherwise we had a great time...
Nan Tien Buddhist Temple
Ally and I noticed this temple on the way to Kiama and dediced to stop for a viewing. Turned out to be a photographer's paradise though we were not there long enough to give it justice (Mack was in the car.) Nan Tien Temple is the largest Buddhist Temple in the Southern Hemisphere and is a serene and beautiful place. The vegertarian cafee does delicious (and cheap) vegetarian food which we sampled.

Sam's first hockey game
Another milestone in the Boting household. Sam was chosen to play her first hockey match. She only started playing this term but has a lot of natural talent and she is not scared of the ball and getting stuck in. Her team won 7-1 and hopefully she will be chosen to play Oakhurst next week.
Ps. In the 1st picture below, Sam is the girl 2nd from the Right. They all look the same with their hair in pony tails!!
