You are such an F for Fantastic mother! My girls say that I am B for Boring (and sometimes something else, though I am sure they don’t know what they mean). Thank you for sharing your lovely pictures!

Thanks so much Nami. When we were at the movies we saw a preview of Madagascar 3 and I’m thinking I’ll wait for that one to go to DVD. Brave would have to be the worst Pixar movie I have ever seen and I hope it’s not because the company’s been sold. Brave is okay but not brilliant and the plot is all over the place and the characters not endearing at all – totally the opposite of Toy Story III that had me shedding tears! xx

You are such a great writer Charlie. I had fun reading! My kids want to go see Brave (We recently saw Madagascar 3 which was okay), but I’ll tell my husband to go with them then. I want to see Ice Age though, yeah sounds better than Brave. 🙂

It does sound like a wonderful holiday to me. I enjoy the things you’re doing…I could spend a whole day in one exhibit, too, so my challenge is going from place to place with my daughter and the grandchildren. One of the girls is like me, and likes to move slowly through discussing every aspect, and then the other is like her mommy, my daughter, who wants to move more quickly and cover more ground. There are some wonderful child-friendly museums and botanical gardens–the gardens having excellent water features, and we try to go as often as we can! I love the architecture on your zoo, Charlie! Wow! And of course, the Opera House…how could I not envy that tour! 🙂 Debra

One of my best friends has three children.. one who is considerably younger and she is just like you. I admire you both.. so patiently going to all of these exhibits and ensuring they have the best holidays ever. (All while keeping an eye on the older two!) I bet Alfie is having the best holiday ever! xx

I totally agree going to the movies now are so much more expensive and hahaha and with getting movies so easy at home now 🙂 I mean legally or illegally 😛 and you can also make popcorn at home for a fraction of the cost ~ But i do understand the novelty of going to the cinemas ~

Sounds like a great holiday! I Wish my mother would have taken me all these places with me 🙂 I remember on school holidays I use to just play at home and we’ll occasionally go to the beach hehe

How great that visiting the opera house is free. I’m not surprised Alfie’s having a wonderful holiday, all that time with you and movies and maltesers too! GG

You know, we never seem to visit the museums here but only ones in other cities when we’re on trips. We should visit our own! And, if the Sydeny Opera House were nearby, I’d happily kill some time wondering around it.
