G'day!
Got back from Sydney yesterday, was so awesome, have so many pics! Touched the opera house, walked across the bridge, touched a sharks egg, travelled on the monorail and stood under a giant charactacture of the queen. Random! sorry, dont know how to flip it :s but you get the idea...
It was a really good few days and we packed in alot but had sooo much time to chill in the mornings and evenings. Our highlights were actually not well known places in Sydney. We must have spent all afternoon at the Aquarium, it was awesome!!and great value for money... (thats where the shark egg comes in) Rose managed to stroke a baby shark, it was so cute.
Saw a croc getting fed, totally gross, but you couldnt help but stand in wonder...

I found Nemo! Hehe.
The other deal of the week was the chinese gardens, so relaxing. It is built on the Darling harbour near the aquarium, its enclosed but you can see the highrise buildings in sydney it was great stuff, so beautiful. A definate highlight and a huge recomendation if you go out there only $6 which is under 3 pounds!Great.

Had a very relaxing day today, it rained! for the first time :( ah well it was ok nothing was planned so we watched old movies and we decided to do a scrap book for rose.
We are collecting song lyrics, verses with loads of craft and art things and are going to creatively put them on pages. Its her b'day soon, so we are going to do different pages and write a little letter to convey our thoughts.
She is a very visual and musical person so a cd will come with it, a collection of music that has a theme of feeling lost, but finding God.
She feels abandoned, and so we want to remind her of God's love and our love, and she is not alone - the psalms are full of this stuff, so we want to include that kinda thing.
If anyone has any advice or verses that you think might help her feel peace and find healing, or any songs I would really appreciate help. Please pray for her, there are huge struggles going on.
Anyway that was really heavy! Sorry!!
Plans for the next few days is to chill, spending the week with rose and jared from mon-thur, so that should be cool :)
Anyway its late, will update soon.
xx
