In Thredbo, Dad and I caught the chairlift to the start of the walk to Mt. Kosciusko (the tallest mountain in oz. 2228 m or 7310 ft.)

We were very lucky to be there when there was some snow. That was our first experience with snow.

Me at the top of Australia. The highest point.

we had a lot of fun having snowball fights. By the way, I won.





The 17th of December is my bday. Happy Birthday!!!

Canberra

This was playground had the best ever slide. At the top, it is steeper than it looks and has a 1 metre drop.
Then you swirl round and round. It is pitch black inside.

At question they had lots of sience that I really enjoyed. This was lights spinning in a tunnel. We tried not to get dizzy.

This is the Telstra tower and everyone in ACT gets their signal from here.

This is the war memorial and we looked up and found some information about our great grandpa who fought in world war 2.

This is the new parliament house. We got to watch question time which is when parliament ask questions.

Lately we have been in Sydney. This was in the outer Sydney at a place called Palm beach, Avalon.
It is where the channel 7 tv show 'Home and Away' is filmed. Luckily we got to catch the team filming it.
To get to Sydney we had to catch the train a lot. When we got off the train we had a pic in front of the big mouth at Luna Park.
This is the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We travelled by train and also walked across it.
This is the Sydney Oprah house.

In Sydney we got to meet some very famous people.
Olivia Newton John who played 'Sandy' in 'Grease'.
The Queen.
Dannii Minogue. A mentor from x factor.
Lady Gaga.
Julia Gillard.
Albert Einstien. The man who invented mathematics.

I just took E.T for a spin.
The King of pop!!! Micheal Jackson
Oz's first lander on oz. Captain Cook

You might be wondering, these are all wax models.

My sand sculptures

This was made by Dad, Hayley and I. It is a dolphin diving out of the waves.

This is a jelly fish.

Hayley was so inspired with the other jellyfish that she decided to make her own with no help from anyone else.

This was our best carving. I love the turtle. I named it Willma. She has layed eggs.

I found a pile of hail from a hailstorm a little while before we arrived at that place. Apparently it hailed just like snow.
