Well, weve seen the sights of Sydney both from land and sea (or at least the harbor). Its a really nice city, and the weather is fantastic (its summer here). It rained a bit yesterday but that was kindof nice, it was still pretty warm. I wanted to get an opal nosering, but no such luck - there arent really small enough opals. Ive already taken about 200+ pictures, I may be able to post them in a while. We're leaving for the ship at 2 tomorrow, and embarking at 7, so I'll write again at our next port!

well, we made it here. It was a long flight, but it wasnt too bad, the food was good and the seats reclined a lot! We're not on the boat yet, but we're at the hotel and doing some sightseeing tomorrow and the next day, and embarking on the 3rd. Seems most places are booked for New Year's Eve, but the hotel room has a nice view of the harbor and bridge, so we can watch the fireworks from there. Thats about it for today.. I'll write more later when we've done more things.

I haven't left yet. I can't wait to leave. Christmas is supposed to be happy! sheesh. Thats okay though. I'll be okay. Well, Merry Christmas to all and to all a.. good night?
