Jet-lagged but excited, we explored the Circular Quay today. Ventured into the Royal Botanical Gardens, saw the Opera House icon, crossed the Harbour Bridge on the trains (that ran very smoothly, counter to everything we were told!), and ate sitting next to the ferry docks. It's winter here, but we thought the day was simply fantastic as we sported our jeans and fleeces. We saw people dressed in anything from shorts and a tee shirt to a heavy winter coat, a hat and a scarf!

We have a great balance among the three of us. Caroline offers her wit that surprises even herself. Karl offers his awesome contraptions, such as the mp3 photo storage device. Says Caroline upon the trial run: "Woah, woah, woah. You have to explain this to me. You just plugged something into an Altoids box!" And I, yes, I offer my endlessly blank looks, trying to keep up with the two of them. I think we get along nicely!

On a different note, coming from the airport to Caroline's friends place in North Sydney, we dished out $90 to the taxi driver! And I followed him the whole way on the map; he was not pulling any shananigans... it was really that far.

We start on our adventures tomorrow. We've got a road atlas, cameras, guidebooks, and backpacks at the ready. Soon we'll even have a car, and will immediately test out our reverse-driving skills... Right hand turns from the left lane are just SO confusing!! And we were just passengers today! Karl says, "We're gonna die tomorrow." Quite the statement. Hopefully it's not true!
