Family Farewells in Sydney

  Sydney, Australia
Monday, April 21, 2008

Alison: After a very early start on Sunday morning and having had minimal sleep the night before, what with last minute packing, Rachel waking up twice with a head cold and Tom once with a nightmare, we finally got on the plane to Sydney, leaving Adelaide at 6.20 a.m. It was bliss to finally be off on our big journey.

Rachel: When we had finally got to Sydney airport my granddad Pops took us home to their house in Longueville.
We started to relax a bit more when we had got to their house, but then we had to get going to see some friends of ours that had moved  to Sydney from Adelaide who had just got a new house.
After having scones with jam and cream with the Kourakises we had a chat and set off back to Longueville and played a game called Life. My mum and I were so annoyed when Tom got to have 80,000 dollars when he went past pay day in the game.

Tom: At 6.30 we had a party. There were 18 people  all together, and some were kids. My sister and I were the oldest. Josh, one of the kids, gave us some pictures. They were great. At dinner time we had chicken marengo, salad, lamb korma and rice. I only had rice becuase I had some WEET BIX! before dinner. After dinner we played Connect  Four and Dominoes. The adults were blaring on about boring stuff and having cake while we had some chocolate ice cream.
Then I went  to bed and woke up with Rachel's cold. THE END
