We have spent a week with Robyn & Ken in Concord, and what a lovely
week it’s been. A great balance of sightseeing, getting to know the
city and relaxing which is just what we needed. We doubt we will meet
a more helpful and kind pair of people on our entire trip!

The 4 of us went out to a district of Sydney which is completely
Vietnamese and we had a lovely meal, reminising about when we all met.
We took Jake (pictured below with Jen) for walks most days – although
we often got caught in the rain.

While we have been here the seasons have changed and it’s surprisingly
cold. So much so that our clothes we had been wearing for the last 3
months are no longer appropriate so we bought a pair of jeans each.
This was no easy feat as Australia assumes men are 6ft6 and women are
5ft10! Jen now has 12yr old jeans that fit nicely!

We left the Lumsden’s yesterday and are now staying with Matt Dewsnap
and his fiancée Mel who Ben knows through his parents. Their place is
in Woolloomooloo which is almost central Sydney and only 10mins walk
from the flat we are moving into tomorrow (Sunday) for the rest of our
time here.
