Day one: Aug 8, 2010: arrived in Sydney finally after pretty much 24 hours in airports and on planes. Checked in to the hotel, showered and went walking around. We bumped into Liz and Sue- (they had a later flight) which worked out well, so we didn't have to actually go looking for them. Victoria was already at their hostel. Went for dinner near the harbour, took pictures. Went back to the hotel to SLEEP!

Day two: Aug 9, 2010: met up with everyone in the morning, went for breakfast and planned our 3 days left here in Sydney. Went shopping in the Rocks area, then downtown Sydney- spent a ton of money at a dance store- Three new pairs of dance shoes for both me and Arthur, new clothes and dance bags.

Had some dinner at this yummy, very filling Japanese place under our hotel

Went on the "Rocks ghost tour" in the evening. It was pretty cool, alot of neat and scary stories were told. we'll see if we got any ghosty stuff on any of the pictures!
