Marathon day

Well, it should be no surprise that this family is all about making the most of each day and spending time together. Each day, we have a plan to see Australia (mostly Sydney) and have fun with the kids. Yesterday, we left early and took the train to the city, the ferry to the zoo and tromped around the zoo for most of the day. It was wonderful and fun. We even took the cable car around the zoo and took pics of the kids with the koalas. When we were ready to leave of the ferry we realized we had more time and plenty of credit on our transportation passes. Why not stop by Bondi Beach? So, we all (12) hurried up and jumped on the bus. Went to Bondi Beach and walked around while we watched Kiddo and Baby Boy enjoy the beautiful sand and all the South Africans enjoyed the waves from a distance. We had coffee and refreshments at McCafe and prepared for the return trip. When Baby Boy had a meltdown on the last bus and I fell asleep on the train, we realized we might have been a bit ambitious. Perhaps today will just be a day of leisure. :)
Oh, just for clarification (We got out of the house at 8:45am and got in around 9:30pm and there's a 17 hour time difference.)

That's a tiring day when one is NOT pregnant with 2 youngsters in tow! I'm quite impressed. :-)
