We're in Sydney!

It's been a loooooooooooong time since the last blog entry, mainly because Mummy had no wireless at Kau Fu Tummy's home and now that we are back at PoPo's place, she has finally mixed the WiFi, other than that we/she had been busy shopping and socialising.

Since we've been back Mika kept repeating every hour 'I'm in Australia'. We think it's because she likes it here. We all too like it here but we miss Daddy a lot... Mika is talking a lot more now and she loves sucking up to Gong Gong and Tai Gong.

Here are some of the things we had been doing:

At the airport on our way to Sydney. I remembered this airplane thing at the food court so we had to go there just to take a photo before we board the plane
In the plane with much anticipation
Mummy feels 10 years older.... but we actually behaved really well on the plane
We greeted Tai Gong immediately upon arrival. We miss him so much since he didn't go to Hong Kong this year
Mika being sweet and vulnerable and asked PoPo and Gong Gong to kiss her 'broken finger', which is the longterm blister from sucking her thumb
Of course we had to play the rocking machine, which was HK$20 per ride
We had to stay at Kau Fu Tummy, Kau Mo Chu Chu and Isaac's place for 5 nights since PoPo had relatives from China to stay with her. We feel very much welcomed at Kau Fu's place where we had our personalised wash cups
Collecting shells on the beach right outside Kau Fu's backyard
and took pictures outside his neighbour's back door
Pretending to be a mermaid on the rock
Isaac's playroom is like a play centre
This is something we can never do in Hong Kong-hiding behind the clothes and knocking them down without getting scolded at by the shop assistants
We attending the weekly story telling session at the library
and did craft that were related to the story theme- animals at the barn
Mika's colouring
We went to an indoor play gym and I made a friend called Charice
We sneaked inside the party room and took photos on the throne
We rode together
Sharing my ice-cream with Mika
I again rode on the ride. It's The Wiggles this time. Mika will be so upset if she finds out what she missed out on.. The Wiggles is her favourite at the moment
We played sparkles
Gong Gong and I played bubbles together
I like to help Mika putting on her shoes and she loves me helping her too (see video)
Really very co-operative in terms on what position I need her to be in
To the library again
Each library has their own character. This library has bean bags and a 'hand chair' that spins
After that we went for a picnic and tried to feed the ducks, but they weren't interested in our food...
Sitting under the big tree enjoying my sausage
Mummy and her babies
Going to the park didn't stop Mika from searching Mummy's bag for goodies
Picking nice flowers
Mika got into trouble when she spilled the bag of chips on the the carpet. Look at her face.. (see video)
a closer look at the guilty face
We went to Bills for their famous pancake. Mika wouldn't leave my babycino alone
It was a ricotta hotcake with butterscotch butter. We also had coconut bread which were very yummy
Reflection of me smiling on the spoon
Straight after Bills we went to a famous Thai restaurant Spice-I-am. We ate our breakfast and lunch within a 5 minute car ride since Mummy didn't want to go on separate occasions. After all it was a 30 mins drive
MM... what should we eat
We had spring rolls, chicken noodle and beef basil stir-fry. Mummy thinks this restaurant is way over rated.

...and more fun things to come!
