Helloooooooooo Sydney!

Well, for not doing very much planning, things sure are starting off great.

We arrived in Sydney, trained to the harbor, ferried to Manly (past the Opera House), strolled the delightful town, and then were picked up by one of Karen's Roots and Shoots colleagues and taken to her home overlooking Freshwater Bay.

Only one word can describe our accommodations: Wow.

We're on a cliff, only a five-minute walk to the spectacular beach. Of course we took the stroll and partook of a dip in the Pacific. The very warm Pacific.

One of the benefits of traveling to the Southern Hemisphere is going back on Daylight Savings Time ... the sun comes up at 5:30 a.m. and stays up until after 8 p.m.

Instead of boring you with words, here are some pix from the day.

This is us on Manly Beach


Self explanatory


Another one of those smiles


 They must've heard Brad was coming
 



On the stroll back from dinner ... 45 minutes along the ocean

 More to come.
