Yesterday I didn't do anything exciting, just watched a few lectures, did some laundry, and played guitar. Today I went to the Sea Cliff Bridge, a bridge that partially overhangs the sea. We'd seen some beautiful photos of it, but the cloudy sky made it...
Didn't do much yesterday. Today we (Cynthia, Cailene, Angela, Sunny, and a friend of Cynthia's) went to Wollongong and Kiama, a bit south of Sydney. A two-hour train ride. I got to the train on time, but the...
We got up early (4:45 a.m.) because we had to leave early to get to our destination on time. We saw a lot of bats! After a bit of a delay, we left around 5:35 a.m. I fell asleep again in the car. At Smithfield Terminal…
In the morning, I went to "The Hat House," a shop owned by the mother of a friend of ours. It was quite a nice shop, with all sorts of artwork, plants, hats, of course, and souvenirs. I have a crocodile magnet with a place name on it...

At 10 a.m., the little ones were at my place, all of us taking the bus to Circular Quay (pronounced like the English "key"). Mom isn't used to buses, I noticed, haha. We took the ferry to Manly. That ferry goes...
This morning Cailene came over to my house; she wanted to hear me play guitar and see if I could teach her something. It was fun! We didn't stay that long, though, because we had to catch a train. She did say it was her...
Today I went to La Perouse (a bit further south in Sydney) with Cynthia, Sunny, Angela, Cailene, and Cindy. We all had a picnic there with some snacks and games. We also walked around the pier and coastal rocks. Big waves and...
Aug 24: Took the train to Auburn Botanical Gardens, because there was a cherry blossom festival there! Apparently, it was the same train as Cailene and Cynthia, so when I walked up the stairs at Auburn Station, Cailene quietly walked beside me until...
