Good-bye Sydney (the City, not the Munchkin)

Success! We were able to knock out Sally’s bladder infection – she just stayed in pull-ups for 2 days until she was back in the saddle (so to speak). Now all is well and everyone is feeling good. Sally was having some meltdowns since we got to Perth (she is SO far out of her routine, it’s not even funny) but we had a heart to heart yesterday and things are much better now. Whew!

Monday our friend Leo (lives in Sydney) drove us all around town and showed us things that tourists normally don’t get to see. We went down to Long Beach (named so for Long Reef) which was absolutely breathtaking. Panoramic views of the open sea and beaches south of Sydney. We also say North Head and South Head, which mark the entrance to the Sydney Harbor (also known as Port Jackson).

Leo drove us all around, and we had a delicious lunch at the club, overlooking the ocean. Fabulous! We drove around, took lots of pix, found a playground for Sally and watched the sunset over the harbor. Spectacular.

Monday was a long and wonderful day, and as much as we would have loved to just crash when we got back to the apartment, it was time to pack up. We have a very early flight to Perth in the AM.

Time to say good-bye to the city of Sydney, at least for a bit.
