This Christmas, Megan and I went Megan’s friend Jenni’s beach house at Coffs Harbour. Had a great time just relaxing! The beach was few minutes walk from the house, so we went to the beach couple of times a day! Christmas was great with plenty of sea food and wine.
Geni’s daughter Anna, made us cocktails. I had never had cocktails before. I quite liked it!
On the way back from Coffs, Megan had her picture taken at the Big banana.
We had a smooth run on the way back but traffic on the opposite direction was moving at a snails pace.
We spend a few days in Sydney at Kim’s place, joining Kim’s boot (booze?) camp. Lexy, Megan and I where planning to go to the CBD on New Years Eve to watch the fireworks. I wanted to click pictures but by 31st afternoon most vantage points where full. As we left the house we decided to not go to the CBD, instead we gate crashed a friends party, had dinner at a restaurant and spent the night talking and drinking wine out of the bottle!

Today I went to the bike shop to buy myself a new helmet. Spoke to the sale person for a while and as I was paying for the helmet, he asked, if I was South African! People beside me thought I was South African too! This is not the first time this has happened. Once before someone thought I was South African; one thought I was a New Zealand Maori(One of the native of New Zealand) and one of them thought I was Irish (Although she only heard me over the phone)! None of the people I have asked to guess got it right. I think of myself as very Indian though. Anyway after the bike shop I went to a super market and asked a sales women where I could find cable ties and she pointed me to Canberra Times 
I could not stop laughing.

It has almost been two weeks since we moved into our rented house in Canberra. Megan and I have been both sick since then The dogs are not allowed in the house so they have to brave the Canberra cold in the shed Took the day of yesterday and made a few phone calls to change our address and also applied for naked ADSL2 from iinet. No TV and no internet and feels like there is not much to do at home.
Tonight, Megan and I are going to my companies staff dinner! Looking forward to the free three course meal and drinks! Wish we where both not sick.
