Sorry it has been so long.

It is finally getting warm again. It was in the 40s/50s for 10 days, that wasn't the issue it was the rain and wind that we got on top of that they made me stay inside.

My weekend was spent doing indoor activities. Saturday I went to Maroubra, where they have an indoor swimming pool, it was really nice to be out and doing something however I will not get use to all the men wearing speedos!
Sunday I took a trip to the Sydney aquarium. Got to learn safety tips on crocodiles...stay away from them! Saw scary sharks in underwater tunnels...SO COOL! The aquarium is located at Darling Harbour so I had lunch there watching the boats.

Fun Facts:
#3 The light switches are upside down. You put it down to turn on the lights.
#4 They don't know what s'mores are well didn't. I was a good American and showed them, this was a difficult task considering they don't have graham crackers or Hershey bars. They were made with M&Ms, cookies and marshmallows. It was a failed attempt.
#5 In exchange for teaching them about s'mores, I was taught how to do a Tim Tam Slam. Tim Tams are to cookies with chocolate in the middle then dipped in chocolate. When doing a Tim Tam Slam you need a cup of hot chocolate. You bite of opposite corners and sip hot chocolate through the cookie. This causes the cookie to melt so we for it melts in your hand you slam it into your mouth...SO YUMMY! (Chris, I will be sure to bring some back for you and teach you how to do this!)
#6 Cotton candy is called fairy floss. Guys try ordering that one!
