Day 13 - Welcome to Australia

It was bright and early this morning, leaving the hotel at 6 to get to the airport for a 9 a..m. Flight to Sydney.  There were sad goodbyes to our Kiwi DM, Kevin, but are excited for our adventure in Australia to start.

We had an interesting approach into Sydney with a touch and go landing as something was on the runway and we had to go back up for another circle around the airport before landing.  Once all through immigration, we hit the ground running, heading to a local park where we were met by staff from Ultimate Sport to learn some traditional Aussie sport - cricket and Aussie Rules Football.  They all had a blast and got out a lot of energy after our 3-1/2 hour flight.

After completing our sporting, we headed to Paddy's Market for some shopping before heading to the hotel to check in and clean up for our dinner cruise around Syndey Harbor.  The kids really enjoyed going up to the sky deck to take in the view of Sydney at night after our delicious dinner.

We are headed back to the dock now and then back to the hotel for some much needed sleep and then tomorrow we head to Bondi Beach for surf lessons.
