Australia 2009 - days 82 to 90 in Sydney and flying home to Copenhagen

Day 82.
We arrive in Narabeen beach, North Sydney via a visit to auntie Yvonne who has a pretty nasty influenza and set up camp in the rain!!

Day 83.
Hans goes to Sydney University to do a lecture whilst mum & Sofie dry out the tent and all its contents.

The campsite has a really good playground and Sofie gets to try the slippery dip with her dad.



















Day 84.
Auntie Gabrielle, Uncle Guy, Hugh & Alice arrive in Sydney and we all meet in town for lunch.

We take the ferry from Manly to Circular Quay which is a fantastic way to arrive in Sydney with views of the harbour.

Before lunch we did a nice walk through the gardens around the harbour. In this photo one can see fruitbats hanging in a tree. The park has hundreds of these animals.

Day 85.
We set out for Bondi beach and Watsons bay.

On the beach walk from Bondi to Bronte beach one can see hundreds of surfers waiting for the perfect wave.

Day 86.
Then it was time to say goodbye!

The day was spent doing walks in the area around the campsite and in this photo one can see the beach at Narabeen.

Sofie wasn't really herself as she had caught a cold. BUT there was still enough energy to swing which has become one of her favourite activities.


















Day 87 & 88.
We all have colds now so spend the day close to the campsite.

Day 89.
We pack up camp and move to a hotel in Kings Cross closer to the city. We send our tent home to Denmark and dad drives to Canberra to drop off all the camping gear we are leaving in Australia.

Day 90.
We leave Sydney, Kingsford Smith airport for Copenhagen.

We play peek-a-boo with Sofie and her hair goes wild due to the static electricity in the plane blankets.














Meal time and Sofie gets a bib with 'Thai airways' written on it.



















Home in Denmark.
Its great sleeping in our own beds. Sofie sleeps almost constantly for the first 36 hours. However her cold is getting worse with a bad cough, fever and dry diapers so we are off to the doctors tomorrow.
