Australia- finally!

So we have been back for almost two months already- how can it be? I decided since I had a free day to try and catch up on some more pictures. I am going to backdate them so it doesn't look like I am so behind- but we all know I really did it in July. ;)
This are just a few pictures of the general area around our bed and breakfast- in an area called The Rocks. It is in the area that was first settled in Australia- and let me tell you- it is NOT stroller friendly! It really was beautiful though. Makes me miss it so much looking at the pictures.

Yep, the some of many stairs that we had to carry our double stroller (aka pram) up and down many many times. Sometimes I would lug the stroller while Ben lugged a sleeping child. :)



The sign for our B&B is behind the kids.







I believe this was George Street- ran behind our B&B and had lots of cute little shops and restaurants.



This was our last day in Sydney, and let me say I did not have a good attitude about leaving! I was very excited to visit with the family, but oh how I loved this city! Next time we are going to have to plan a longer trip so we can stay here longer!

This is a picture of the top of Sydney Harbor Bridge- we walked across it but did NOT climb to the top!



Ben and the kids on the bridge. We were pretty nervous walking across so they mostly had to stay in the stroller! Looks like Landon may have been having a bit of an attitude as well!



This was cool- a prison in the water, similar to Alcatraz. (viewed from the bridge as well)
We didn't know about it until our last full day, but we will be touring it the next time!



Another view from the bridge. It looks like a church but we learned that many buildings that look like a church are sadly, no longer churches. So I'm not sure what this is. :)



Had to get a picture of this... one lady who was also staying in our B&B told us about it on her last morning- she walked out on the bridge just to get a picture of it!
