Another Relaxing Day

Sydney had trouble sleeping last night, thanks to her long nap in the late afternoon. So we took it easy today. We spent the morning in Hyde Park chasing pigeons and ducks. There was an art exhibit in Hyde Park called Sydney Life. There were large paintings in the park of the winners of a photo contest for the best pictures that captured life. Some of the pictures were great, others were haunting. Sydney was fascinated with a fountain in the middle of the park. She just lingered there, starting at the statues. What I wouldn't give to know what was going through her mind then.

After Sydney's nap, we walked down to the Sydney Opera House and to Circular Quay to have lunch. The Circular Quay was a strip of restaurants and stores next to the Opera House. It was another beautiful day so we had a fun time hanging out and watching the boats in the harbour.

I really enjoy Sydney's curiosity --- everything has to be touched and played with. This city is a perfect place for it because it is clean and has a lot of offer, especially to someone who is 16 months old.
