Greetings from Sydney

"A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving."
Lao Tzu

I arrived in Sydney on Sunday morning (Sydney time). It's so strange to leave Friday and arrive on Sunday. I flew right over Saturday. Cool, eh? We've been spending a lot of time visiting with P.'s family (his folks and cousins). We haven't seen much of the city yet. We've seen some beautiful Harbour Views and have been to Coogee Beach. We also checked out the Australia Museum which has some really cool exhibits -- especially the Search and Discover Exhibit where you can touch and play with models of all sorts of Aussie animals (koalas, kangaroos, snakes, dingoes, etc) Today we're making our real first foray into the City. We're going to check out the Opera House and take a ferry to Manly Beach.

The weather (until today) had been beautiful and warm. Today it's overcast and cool (more typical late winter weather). Hopefully it warms up as we head out on the harbor.

We're heading out now. Will get back on and update more later.
