Chalk art festival, AKA another rained out event

This was from quite a while ago. Just trying to catch up on my entries. I can't believe how quickly a month has gone by!

We drove all the way out to Parramatta for this street painting festival, only to get there and it started to rain. Luckily all of the art work is on canvas so they just picked them up and brought them inside.

Before finding the main area, we stopped at a chocolate bar and had churros with melted chocolate. We got Amelia a babychino and Eric got some sort of chocolate shake. It was about $30. Yikes. Everything is so damn pricey!!!

The young girl below did this one.

11 year old with the best painting!

My second favorite piece.

This was my favorite I think.

Of course Amelia liked this one--it was green with a frog.

What are they doing with the baby?

What the hell is this?

Replicas. Very odd yet kind of fun.

Sailors

It would look better if they had an ocean background.

Skipped most of October.

Though I try and take pictures almost every day, I have just been too tired lately to work on the blog. By the time Amelia gets to sleep, I too am asleep or so tired I can't really form two sentences together.

October 3rd-

Morning view near the elevator.

I saw the Gnome Chomsky sculpture here but went back later and it was already gone. 

Bondi Beach pool

Too chilly for me.

First she said, "I can't!"

But then kept at it.

And finally figured it out!

Kitty cat suit.

She loves to climb!

This guy is balancing on TWO balls!

A silly game of "golf"

Playing a new game on a rainy day.

Sundays are Family Fun Days!

Sundays are Family Fun Days. For $2.50 you can get an all day pass to travel anywhere on the train, bus or ferry. It's pretty awesome! I think you can even get out of the city as long as you travel on the Cityrail. We haven't done that yet, but I'm sure once the weather gets a little better, we'll head for the mountains.
In this case, it was rainy and cold outside. Perfect time to head indoors to the Sydney Aquarium.
Below you will find some photos--pretty typical photos from an aquarium, though I do love the lego sculptures throughout the venue. I only took pictures of a few, but there had to be at least 2-3 dozen. There was even a mosaic wall. Quite dazzling!

On the train. So excited!

Downpour downtown

Shark!

At the Dugong exhibit.

The menu for the Dugongs.

They love the see glass tunnels.

I love the glass tunnels!

I'm leaving but the shark is staying. Whew!

Moby Dick lego sculpture.

Fishies.

Here he comes.

Swimming

This doesn't even being to capture it.

Close up of the mosaic.

This is all f*cking legos!

Taking the ferry back to the Quay.

Nice view from this platform.
