Sydney fish market

Sunday 27 April

For our outing today we are going
to the Sydney fish market.
I never thought that we will ever
go there as Claude cannot stand
the smell of fish.
Actually the smell was not bad at all.

the fish market

Eating oysters with garlic bread
and a glass of wine. Heaven.

It was amazing. I thought it would be only
fish and sea food but there was also a big
fruit and veggies market, a bread shop and
this amazing delicatessen with a big
counter full of cheeses.

squids

I bought some mussels and some scallops.
From the sea, Claude only eat oysters.

a sunken ship

We went to put our purchases in the cool bag
in the car. Claude had ask for some ice to keep
every thing safe to eat.

Then we went for an exploration walk.
We have never been in this area.

There is a big park just in front of the market

He can hear and see Lachlan
the little boy next door.

saying hello to the rainbow lorriket

he went under the table, so I went outside to

do pick a boo

His trousers were getting in the wayof his crawling.
So I took them off.
Now he is helping in the kitchen.
I have the saucepans drawer just open enough
for him to touch but not to take things out.

he was having fun and I could do the
preparations for dinner.

Amelia is awake

Joshua love the horse too

Amelia day 5 and Joshua day 2

Saturday 21 April

They already had their weet bix, but
I was having an English muffin with
Vegemite, so they wanted one too.

I left his side for a few minutes and
he followed me to the kitchen.
Amelia was telling him:
"It's alright Joshy, I am here"

Last week I collected a lot of recycling
for Amelia to use for box construction.

Joshua found something to eat,
the poor starving boy!

Amelia is making a boat.

And Joshua found more tidbits.

very pleased with herself, but then
she noticed that it did not have a flag.

Amelia is building a car.

and up he goes.
 I had to turn around
the fireplace armchair for him to
have something to grab.

Amelia day 4 and Joshua day 1

Amelia just woke up from her nap
when Jo arrive to drop off Joshua.

Jo is very tired she just drove back
from Port Macquarie. She want to
make it home while there is still
day light.

She has a lot to tell mummy

She give her brother some ice cream.


On our way back from Sydney Park
we stopped at the shop to buy ice
cream pink one for Amelia and
Maggie Beer burnt fig, honeycomb and
caramel ice cream for grand dad.
I hope that he does not want it
too often, It is not in my budget.

he wants some more.

Almost bed time. It has been a big day for Amelia
and a long car trip for Joshua.

A cocoon

Friday 20 April

Yesterday when we were living in
the car Amelia pointed out a cocoon.
She told me all about the butterfly
who was going to come out of it.

Today when we got home she went
 to look at it and (I think) was
disappointed that it was only a
bunch of leave.

Look grand ma a cocoon

I love Amelia inquisitiveness.
