A well kept secret, Wattamolla in the Royal National Park is an amazing getaway for a young family like us. The beach is secluded and the water is shallow and crystal clear. The beach is separated from a river by a large sand dune. The river estuary is incredible with shallow water to splash in […]

ok, these are a bit dates, but thought I’d post them anyway! It was Australia Day (January 26th) and we went to our dear friend’s Amanda and Simon’s for an afternoon play and proper Aussie bbq consisting of sausages, steak and salad. It was a super hot day so the kids played with water a […]
A couple weeks ago family kasumovic did the trek from Coogee Beach to Bondi Beach while viewing the beautiful sculptures on display at this year’s “Sculptures by the Sea” event. It was a beautiful hot day so we planned to stop at Bronti Beach for a swim and picnic (about 1/3 of the way to […]
A week or so ago, Tomas, Ethan and I along with our dear friends, Vicky, Sophie (3 years) and Audrey (9 months) went to a new splash park in the City. It was amazing! The main area of the park was set up as a braided river system where you could alter the path of […]
This year Tomas decided he wanted to be a transformer. This was a bit of a surprise since he has not seen any transformer shows or movies, but a transformer mask caught his eye and as he’s really into robots, he was sold! I thought we’d dress Tomas in some cool blue and red duds […]
On Friday, our good friend, Maddie who’s also colleague of Mike’s took the boys and I to the Royal National Park. It’s about an hours drive south of Sydney. The boys were amazing during the car ride. Ethan slept on the way and Tomas chatted away about everything he saw out the window. We drove […]
Last Sunday (April 3rd) we took the kids to the Taronga Zoo, located in Sydney, across Darling Harbour. We took the ferry there which was super exciting for Tomas who sat with me at the back of the boat and watched the wake of the ferry. We were looking forward to seeing the three baby […]
This year Tomas and I dressed as skeletons for Halloween. My costume is somewhat lame with the tapped on ribs, but there are limited options for pregnant women Halloween costumes! Tomas and I had fun putting on the face paint and getting dressed up together. We didn’t trick or treat, instead we attended a friend’s […]
On Saturday, the 23rd, we joined our good friend Nelika for a trip to Cockatoo Island, located in Sydney Harbour. The Island is playing host to this year’s Biennale Contemporary Art Show. We took a ferry to the island, which I believe was Tomas’ favourite part of the trip. We spent the better part of […]
On Saturday June 26th, Mike, Tomas and I paid a visit to one of my favourite spots in Sydney, Fox Studios. This time there was a different farm hosting animals for the kids to touch and feed. Tomas was thrilled to feed the animals a big carrot. A small guinea pig was the hungriest of […]
