Just to make you happy

Im officially tired.  Kids are taxing - I don't know why people have them.  Maybe cuz they are cute, but Im not so sure.  Anyway, I took so long to write in my blog that too much has happened for me to remember it all - let alone write it down.  I may be repeating myself - but I dont care enough to double check.  So, I've gone to Phillip Island which was stunning:

(my shoe got swept up in a wave and I nearly lost it)

(A kangaroo!)

(Just so that you know it's really me)

We went to other parts of Phillip Island as well that we're different yet just as beautiful, but by then I wasn't taking photos - my camera died - no joke!

On the way to Phillip Island we stopped by a garden - but there werent flowers:

(we saw some bush - which had recently had a controlled fire)

(and this is Yut or as I call it - a car-truck)

We also went to Brighten Beach - just made up the spelling:

 And we went to Eureka Tower which is the tallest building in Meblourne.  We went in this little cube/box thingy that went out over the city and you could see through the floor.

 We also went to St Kilda beach (its nearby) to see to punguins - this is one of my good photos - I have a few more).  We went to St Kilda during the day as well but i didnt take pictures of those outings.  during the day we saw Luna Park - the entrance is a huge mouth that you walk through and we wandered though the market there.

 Then it was off to Sydney.  The plane was obviously delayed - but only bu half an hour - thats nothing!
When we arrived I wandered the streets alone as my friends checked in cuz the room was booked for two ppl.  I went to a park - I cant remember the name and befriended this Ibis.

 Then I went into the room.  It was small but expensive!

 And the view was great!

But I was in Sydney!

(bad photo - I know.  If you want a good one google it!)

We went to the Royal Botanical Gardens

And I got lost here.

Cuz I needed one of these.

 Then we woke up uber early the next morning and went to the Blue Mountains - its stunning!
(its called the blue mountains cuz its covered in trees (I cant speel the name of but koalas eat then - not the ones that made up this forest tho cuz they are the wrong variation) and these trees have oils that evaporate and the way the light hits the oil makes everything look blueish - so I was told - cuz when I went it was really rainy and foggy and everything was white.

So cool!

(oh yeah - its a temperate rain forest)

We hiked down to the bottom of a valley and then took this railway up.  its the steepest train track - at a 52/53 degree angle - i cant remember exactly which.

there are 3 rocks that are uber famous here cuz of a story.  In the story 3 beautiful sisters fall in love with 3 brothers from diff tribes.  the tribes dont like each other so the brothers try to run off with the sisters. this starts a war.  A sorcerer turns the sisters into rocks to protect them but he is killed during the war so the sisters are stuck as rocks forever.

these are the sisters

Then I started nannying! (More soon about what Ive done since nannying - but no photos - cuz I didnt take any!)
