Hey guys.

Today we moved from Canberra to Sydney. It was a 300km drive. This park has a playground, two games and tv rooms. We figured out that we had free internet so we played our computers for a bit. It was really fun.

Thanks

Hey guys.

Today we went for a walk around part of Lake Burly Griffin.
We stayed in the caravan for the morning and did school work.
After lunch we went for our walk. At the start of the walk there was a information building on the history of Canberra. There some national flags on the water front. There was a bell tower on a small island in the lake. We walked past the National Gallery. When we had finished the walk we came across a whole patch of trees with flying foxes in them. We got Andrew to stand under one of the trees with some fruit. Then we walked down to a place where they were showing bonsai trees, it was amazing. When we get back home I am going to try to take up making bonsai trees. We had lots of fun today.

Thanks :)

Hey guys.

Today we went to the Australian Institute of Sport and Zone 3 laser tag.
First we went to the Australian Institute of Sport. It was really interesting to see where athletes train. There was a room where you could try a few different sports like Virtual foot ball and Cricket, skying, rock climbing and many more different sports. It was really fun there.
Next we were of to Zone 3. We got Mum and Dad to have a go. Andrew and I were on a team in the first round and then it was free for all the next two rounds. I won every round :). My top score was something like 12500. We had lots of fun today.

Thanks :]

Hey guys.
Today we went to the National Museum and the Telstra Tower on Black Mountain.
The National Museum was interesting. There was an Aboriginal, Torres strait mask, and an early Australian settlers section. First we went to the K-zone (Kid zone.) In the K-zone you had to design a space ship then you would see it in a 3D movie. It was pretty cool. The disappointing thing about the museum was it only had three sections. We thought because it was the National Museum, it might have a lot more to see there.
We sat on the banks of Lake Burly Griffin.
Next we drove up to the Telstra Tower on Black Mountain. It was a really good view from up there. There were massive flying ants about as big as this gap. They were huge. There were hundreds of them up there. The elevator made your stomach churn on the way down.

Hey guys.

Today we went to Old Parliament House and Parliament House. We had a tour of Old Parliament House. It was interesting.
Next we walked up to Parliament House. We got to watch Question Time. It was really funny to see all the politicians yelling at each other and booing the other parties comments. Kevin Rudd was there and a few other well known politicians like Tony Abbot and Peter Garret.
We had lots of fun today.

Thanks :]

Hey guys.

Today we went to Questicon and the Royal Australian Mint.
Today it is Andrew's Birth Day, Happy Birthday Andrew!!!! Questicon was really cool because there was so much hands on science and things to do. On the bottom level there was a massive free fall slide, you free fell for a couple of metres then it sloped into a slide, there was a roller coaster simulator, it was fun, and there was lots more. We went to a show and there were all sorts of optical illusions, it was really cool. Next we went off to lunch at a food court. I had Hungry Jack's.
Lastly we went off to the mint. If you don't know what the mint is here is the answer. The mint is where they print and make money. It was really interesting. Andrew and I made a dollar coin each. It is a 2010 coin.

War Memorial and some shocking news

Hey guys.

Today we went to the Australian War Memorial. The War Memorial was really cool, there was so much to see. There were army vehicles, helicopters, airplanes, and much more. The history was really interesting and I enjoyed it. There was a place where you could go inside a submarine (not a real one), a helicopter , and some trenches. It was really fun and I really enjoyed the museum.
Here is the bad news. My ipod died. They call it the white screen of death. We can't fix it but hopefully the Mac Shop might :P. If not my ipod is dead for ever.
