What a beautiful day it was when we arrived here in Sydney. You may notice a few things about this picture:
First, the world famous Sydney Opera House. It’s beautiful, and really looks like it does in the movies.
Second, the criminal costume with large plastic chains and leg-ball. I just want to say how proud I am that we brought that entire costume with us across half the world to basically film this one joke.
Yesterday was spent wine tasting in the Hunter Valley, which was not only beautiful, but also provided us the chance to drink somewhere around 18+ wines. I kind of lost track after 12.
Oh, and we saw Kangaroos bouncing through the vineyards, then we came back to Sydney and found a place that sells Kangaroo Pizza so we could eat them. They were delicious. Easily in my top 3 of bouncing rats for eating.
