The Eagle Has Landed...

This is the view from our apartment! We're only in this place for a month, but I still can't believe that we're finally in Sydney

I have limited email access at the moment and lots to write about. Today has been spent trying to get an apartment, but you can't do that unless you have a bank account, a letter from your primary school teacher confirming you're morally upstanding, a rent book, your passport and birth certificate, 42 official letters with your name and Australian address on them and a DNA sample.

So marginally easier than getting a BlockBuster video card then.

Of course we packed all of these things, along with our Sydney guidebooks, in the luggage we sent separately. With hindsight, we could have planned this much, much better...
