Our Family's Australian Adventure
One of the true highlights of our time in Australia was having Tiffany, Robert, Trevor, and Ethan visit us. They came on Tuesday October 14th and left on the 27th of October. They did fly to Cairns for 5 days in the middle so we had them for about 8 days here in the Blue Mountains and Sydney.
Here are some of the pictures from their trip. They are not in order but hope you will get a flavor for some of the things we did together while they were here.
We really had a great time. We went to Glenbrook Park where we saw kangaroos in the wild the very first day they were here. On Wednesday we went to the Three Sisters. It was a very foggy day and at first we could only see about 10 feet and couldn't even see the beautiful canyon or the Three Sisters, but the fog lifted and we had a beautiful view. That day we also went down into the rain forest at the bottom of the canyon.
We went into Sydney three times. And while we were there we took a tour of the Opera House; we looked at the city from the top of the Sydney Tower. We also rode the red double decker bus around the city and got a real feel for this beautiful city. The boys especially liked the big clock in the Queen Victoria Building.
Trevor and Ethan really loved going to Featherdale Wildlife Park; petting the koala and seeing a kookaburra up close. We had a wonderful time with our family. Grandma Sandi took care of Kevin in San Diego so that Tiffany and Robert and the big boys could concentrate on sight seeing and enjoying Australia. We thoroughly enjoyed their visit.
Well I am running out of time to post all these pictures. Hope you can see that we truly had a great time. Australia is a wonderful place and we are really enjoying the beautiful scenery and the wonderful people. It is great to be able to share the adventure with your family.
