Sydney here I come!!!

Hi Guys!

Well, I finally made it all the way to Sydney to Way’s home. It sure was nice to see those lovely girls out back of the outback in Broken Hill. They were so sweet to me. I even have a memento that one of them made for me.
Way is a very forgetful person. He had me locked up in my sleeping bag for exactly two whole weeks before he took me to work today.
Oh, today, let me tell you about today.
First off, he had to get me out of my bag!

You know, if you click on the picture a bigger one open up :) Sweet!

It was a bit of a squeeze but I managed to twist and turn and I was right as Rayne. heheh that's a bit of a joke. Way taught me some really good ones :)






























Way was busy, so I gave him a hand with some of his work. He designs stuff.

Later, way said we should go down to the road for a drink at one of the clubs just for men like us. It seemed like a good idea to me, I’d been locked up for nearly three weeks so I was really thirsty.
We walked up Oxford Street for a little bit and Way said to wait here while he went into the liquor shop to get us some drinks…

While he was gone I thought of popping into this nice hardware store called the Tool Shed but I spied a great clothes shop instead. (you really have to click on the photos to see the detail)

He I am going into the store. The lady inside was very nice.















When I came out (nothing my size) Way was nowhere to be seen!
He’d left me all alone!

So I ran and ran until I was totally lost.
Way says he followed a trail of screaming bystanders who said they’d seen a giant rat run down the street. Surely they didn’t mean me?

That’s when Way found me in a dark alley.

I was so scared I ran away again and hid in this room with bars. Way says it took him an hour to coax me out again. He also said it was lucky he found me because a big, bad, Ancient_One works in that big building at the rear of the lane.

Way said to calm my nerves we should go for a walk down to Circular Quay and get some fresh air.
Well, what a beautiful place. This is a photo of the Sydney Opera House. Way, his family, and Vtreka Swental and his family went to a Beethoven Concert there yesterday. I wish Way had remembered to take me along too! I love Classical Music especially when it’s written by a Scottish composer like Beethoven!

When we looked to the left we could see the Sydney Harbour Bridge which just celebrated it’s 75^th anniversary. Sydneysiders call it The Coat Hanger. I wonder why?

When I looked the further left I could see all those tall buildings around the Quay, Way says some really nice TOGgers work in that area. Way pointed out the brown building on the right. He says that’s the building he abseiled off. Once.

Way set me down on a step so he could get me in a shot with the Opera House behind. But he had to hurry because the little girl was going to snatch me away. That’s me, the little brown dot about centre left in front of the girl, Hurry Way, hurry!

Phew, we made it to the top of the stairs so we could get a better look at those amazing sails.

Hey, Pigeon stay over there!

Hehehe I tried to escape by jumping up on the sails, but it’s too steep. See those tiles I am sitting on, there’s more than 6 million of them, and they are not all white. Some are cream colour to help cut the glare!

On our way down again we snapped another shot of the city. See the tallest building there? That’s the one Tom Cruise abseiled from a helicopter and into the heating vents in Mission Impossible II. Ways says he and Tom Cruise have a lot in common.

Back to the car, “the meter’s running” said Way so across the Coat Hanger we go on our way back home.

Golly, it’s a big bridge. And did you know most of the steel came from England?

Ahhh back on the leafy North Shore again, Hey Way, where’s the road go? It looks like it drops off a cliff!!!

Agghhh just a steep hill, eh? Had me fooled.

Almost home, where Way says there’s some friendly cats waiting to meet me.
Well, good bye for now, I’ll post some more tomorrow.
