 |  Sydney has this wonderful mixture of old colonial buildings and modern architecture. They side side by side sit comfortably |
 Circular Quay was having some facelift work done to it |  The Sydney Opera House was covered in a red dust left over from the dust 'storm' earlier in the year. |
 |  They were getting the bridge ready for Christmas and the world famous New Year firework display |
 |  |
 |  |
 |  The Rocks |
 It was such a hot day and strange to see everywhere decorated for Christmas, the snowmen were the weirdest sight - how come they didn't melt? |  Darling Harbour |
 We resisted the impulse to paddle! |  |
 |  The Queen Victoria Building was trimmed up with a giant Christmas Tree |
 Queen Victoria Building a lovely shopping mall | Sunday 15th November We left Sydney and headed down the coast. Down onto the Grand Pacific Drive and into the Royal National Park, we stopped briefly at Audley. |
 |  Heading down the coast road we came across this small reserve, a tribute to a local school teacher |
 |  Mike and his friends built a boat in his memory 'Comradeship' |
 From here we drove on the spectacular 'Sea Cliff Bridge' along the coast |  |
 We stopped for coffee and a bun in Shellharbour |  Taking the scenic route through the Macquarie Pass and up to the Fitzroy Falls ...woo hoo... they had water |
 |  Whilst here we watched the fire-fighting helicopter fly back and forth refilling his water bucket |
 We walked to the Twin Falls...the water didn't get this far! ....they were dry! |  |
 By mid afternoon the blue sky had been covered with cloud we arrived at Huskisson and the beautiful Jervis Bay Marine Park ('I can point') |  |
 |  After a long yet wonderful day we arrived at South Durras and Murrumamrang National Park for a cold beer |
 |  The view from our villa |
 It was Australia's version of Centre Parcs |  |
 |  Yes it's just a coffee! |
 We drove to Pebbly Beach famous for its kangaroos that play on the beach. We arrived to be greeted by Red Roselles. |  I think the kangaroos were having a day off! |
 'Billy' on the beach |  It's busy! |
 Billy's mate |  |
 |  |
 There they are... |  We called in to Batemans Bay .... a lovely town |
 |  Batehaven |
 Back at our villa we had some guests waiting for us |  |
 Kairen was really giddy her first 'roo fix' of the holiday |  |
 |  A beer to close a great day |
 Murrumamrang is an 'eco' village even the ducks are welcome in the swimming pool |  All good things come to an end...... we arrive back to our villa to find we had a flat tyre...where are the 'roos to help when you need them? |
We would love to receive your comments....to email us click <here>
