a day in sydney


Firstly, I have to start this post off with some amazing news regarding George and his exam results. We just found out that he has done extremely well and got a 2:1 in Economics. So relieved that it's all over and there is nothing stressing us out anymore. It called for cracking open a bottle of champagne with mum and dad cheering and hugging in the lounge room haha. So exciting.

It topped off an already amazing day spent in the city where we checked out the new and first ever Zara store to come to Australia, showed George around some new additions to the city which have changed since he has been here this time last year, strolled down to the harbour to act like tourists and take a billion photos of the Opera house and the Harbour Bridge. It was such a great day especially since the rain finally decided to stop. Sydney is an incredibly beautiful city, I am loving spending winter here in my home town.

It's meant to be back to normal sunny Sydney weather starting tomorrow so George and I will be out and about going on adventures around different areas and suburbs with massive smiles on our faces celebrating George's excellent results before going out for a beautiful dinner at the yummiest Thai restaurant with mum and dad. The perfect way to start the weekend!
