House Guests

Today we found out we had some new friends and that they love our leftover bread. 




They are Rainbow Lorikeets which are in the parrot family and are found all over Australasia, but here they just call them Lori's. 



They are also quite the acrobats.

Beautiful Sunset

Just wanted to give you guys a taste of our beautiful life here! 
*and maybe make you a little jealous :) 



Look at those beautiful colours! 
What a way to end an evening!

Easter Surprise!

Since were all living here and there is not a lot of surprises. I decided to leave a surprise for all the roommates this Easter morning. 

Leaving a trail of delicious chocolates leading to more chocolates. 


Then we went to the beach and built some sandcastles on sleeping friends. 



All in all a good day spent at the beach and with friends. 



Fireworks at Darling Harbour

There are plenty of things to do in Sydney, we are finding them slowly but surely. One of those things is the Darling Harbour Fireworks, so we set out early and decided to find somewhere nice to have dinner and watch the show. 



The view was wonderful as we were right by the flags and across from the famous Hard Rock Cafe and some of the nicest restaurants on the Harbour. 


The fireworks were truly a show and were a wonderful cap to a great evening among friends.

New Flat in Bondi!

We have officially moved into our new apartment and it is gorgeous! It's bright and spacious with a great view (on one side). We love it so much we've barely left. It came fully furnished with with every cooking utensil we will ever desire and a washer/dryer combo. The only kink in our otherwise flawless plan is that there are only three double beds and five roommates...  Montana and Vicky are sharing and Tim and I are now bed buddies. Jon lucked out and got his own bed, however it is a futon and collapses easily as we found out when we 'earthquaked' Jon the morning of April Fool's.



Before moving into our new pad we walked down to the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge for some cliche touristy photos.



Here's all of us in front of the Harbour Bridge. From left to right: Montana, Jon, Arden, Tim, Vicky



Being a tourist in Sydney was phenomenal but we're excited to settle down and actually start living here.
