Sean's Holiday to Oz (Part 1)

At the beginning of this blog I mentioned that I would be doing some "retrospectives" and the time has come to make good on that promise.

Way back in July 2004, Sean and his Dad travelled back to Oz for a 2-week holiday. After some excitement when it looked like Sean's passports had been lost, we eventually arrived at the airport in plenty of time, passports in hand, After getting through Immigration Sean and his Dad found a place to sit for a while. Sean decided to try out the new colouring pencils that his Dad had bought just for the trip.


They even had time for Sean to pose for some photos.


The first port of call was Sean's Great Aunty June's new flat in Sydney. It was lovely. Very quiet and a perfect place to relax after a long overnight flight.


In order to try and adjust our body clocks we thought it best to go out and fortunately Aunty June knew of an exhibition at the Powerhouse Museum that was just the trick. Tibetan monks were putting on an exhibition and their handiwork was surprising for its complexity and just plain beautiful to look at.




Sean managed to get lost inside the museum at exactly the time we had set to leave. But, it was a very good day and a perfect start to the holiday.
