I'm still enjoying Argentina and it is a lot like Australia but more relaxed.
I'll have more news, with photos, soon.

Trip to New South Wales, Day 1

In April this year, our family flew down to Sydney and spent a hectic few days in this historic city. We also travelled down to and stayed on the beautiful South Coast, the Illawarra.

In the coming weeks, we hope to blog some of the details and images of this trip, taken before Flat Charlie or Flat Pedro were born!

It was exciting returning to Sydney, particularly in being able to share this city with my family. It’s hard to fathom the size of the city, until you have negotiated much of the length of George Street, which we did on Tuesday. Our plan for Day 1, Monday, was to get an overview of the city, but we still managed to see a little of Chinatown.

We first visited the monorail on the Monday we arrived. It took quite a while to find as it seemed that everyone we asked had either different directions or simply didn’t know where it was at all. Despite all that, we got there, and it was good.

It didn’t quite live up to our expectations, but it went to several major parts of Sydney, and it was fun to ride on. The only other problem was the Monorail was so popular there wasn’t much space.

Flat Pedro's Update

Flat Pedro has contacted us to say that his return has been delayed as he has realised that a Tour of South America would not be complete without visiting at least three countries!

In addition to Peru and Bolivia, he will delight the people of Argentina with a personal visit. He was very impressed with the beauty of Peru, the friendliness of its people and its amazing history. In contrast, Bolivia is the poorest country in South America, but its people are very nice.

Unfortunately he cannot find an internet place with a USB or CD-drive, so we must wait for photos!
