skidney

so a couple weeks ago garrett and i went for a short vacation to sydney. it was freezing. fun. and a really good taste of city life. being in byron for too long creates this weird longing for tall buildings and concrete (weird, i know). anyway, it was good. we saw things. ate things. experienced things. 

we saw the opera house (of course)



we met garrett's step-brother down there. he is classic. great hair...



we also drank a lot of coffee. 
this was a cool fair trade coffee shop in glebe.




sydney was good, but now i really want to see melbourne. there were pockets of goodness in sydney, but apparently melbourne is full of op shop/coffee shop galore.
