My sister has her finals tomorrow and then we are all free of responsiblity for a while. We traveled down to Sydney to stay with some family friends. We climebd the harbour bridge, saw a christmas concert int he opra house and best of all saw a free Jon Bon (Jovi) concert in darlling harbour. He was on a floating barge. He still has it after all these years. Amy, robin's friend Jessie and I then drove up along the coast while robin studied. we tasted wines, played on the beach and Itried to teach my self to surf with a little of there help. I will say, I still cannot surf but I made a lot of people laugh. It was great. I had a wonderful time. Other than that I am back to NZ on the 22nd. I am excited in some ways but there is so much of Oz I haven't seen yet. Some day. Any of you want to join me? I miss you all and wish you wonderful holidays. Love and christmas joy to you all.
