Crazy Spaceship Car

Posted By Kalani

I took this photo for you so you can see the crazy spaceship car that parks on Brunswick St. (in Fitzroy) on weekends. It has lots of satellites on the roof and other strange looking things. I wonder if it it's trying to contact aliens. There are newspapers all around the windows so you can't see inside - must be top secret stuff going on...

New School

Posted By Ava

I stayed at my godmother's house on the weekend. She lives in Manly (another beach suburb of Sydney of course!). She has a little wild brush tailed possum living in her roof! She calls him Jack. He is very cute and furry, he looks very cuddly.

Birthdays and Friends

Posted By Kalani

Recently I have been going to a lot of birthdays. A few weeks ago I went to my cousin Obed's birthday (if you you know Stars Wars, well it was a Jedi party). We played lots of games like Jedi vs Syth--if the Jedi touches the Syth, the Syth has to go to Syth prison (in the corner of the backyard). At the end of the party we ate cake and we got given certificates with our new Jedi names on them.

Sydney Festival 2010

Posted By Ava

Guess what! I went to the opening of the Sydney Festival. It was held in the Domain park and Hyde Park, which are the biggest parks in the city. There were 250,000 people attending the concert. Isn't that a lot!? At the concert there was a traditional Aboriginal ceremony.

Happy New Year!

Posted By Ava

It is so cool it's actually A NEW YEAR!!! The year 2010 is now upon us and pretty much everything is different. I'm going to go to a new school and into a new grade.

New Year's was awesome! I spent it in Newcastle where my dad and family live. Newcastle is a small city 200 km away from Sydney on the coast. We went out on a boat to see the fireworks.

Merry Christmas All and a Happy New Year !

Posted By Kalani

Sorry this is a little late but I have been busy on my adventures around India. I am writing from India in a city called Kolkata. My Mum, Dad and I are spending summer holidays in India.

On Christmas morning it was very different to usual Christmases.

At the hotel we are staying at there is a big gingerbread house and I got lots of Indian toys like a toy car called the Ambassador which is common in India.
