cameras, frozen yogurt and 5 kids in a 4 seater



sunday was quite magical; hanging with new friends, giggling and driving around the world in my little bug.

started off at the sydney camera market with caitlin and brandon in the morn, browsing the tables and frothing over all the delicious cameras on display. i naturally didn't come away empty handed; i have a new fold out toy that i've already started snapping with- i'm hoping to have the roll finished by the end of the week so i can share the resulting lovelies. new cameras just make me so happy. fiddling with all the knobs and levers and blundering through all the gadgets and twisty bits, pulling instead of pushing and all that jazz. just makes me shiver with glee.

the day then lulled into night with a glorious jumble of here and there; pitt st for tea and banana chips, then bundling 5 into my 4 seater (3 lovely boys with their knees up to their chins in the backseat) and driving to shakespeares for the best $10 dinner in a room far too small for the table it featured, spreading out across the 20 varying plush seats underneath the rather endearing antler encrusted chandelier. from there we proceeded to drive back to pitt st, then to bondi for coffee, getting there to find the coffee shop had closed an hour previously, settling for frozen yogurt (detested!) instead, then meandering down to the bowl where caitlin and i dangled our legs over the edge and watched the boys being boys, rolling around in the puddles at the bottom of the bowl while we remained reasonably dry and warm (blanket-wrapped and all).

it makes me happy to know that summer is only 35 days away...
