Freeman- Of course we'd like to get together when you're in Sydney-- and I know Aussie Erin would also, she's a fan of yours!

Great shots! A friend of mine went over for that race.

Speaking of which, when sprog #2 comes through we're going to have to come over to SYD to get him his American citizenship. Want to get together then? (Probably sort of October)

Awesome pictures... looks like a blast.. (I am at work & couldn't listen to your hubbys video, but it looks cute...- I'll check it out when I get home...: )

I think "Fidel Castro" looks kind of like Osama's right hand man (you know, the one they "killed.") Maybe the dude is just livin' it up in Sydney...enjoying the sausage rolls and vegamite! ;-) Your Friend, MWB :-)

Nursemyra- And it's a hotel that doesn't even rent rooms, right?

My youngest son was conceived after a night at the Golden Sheaf

Hereinfranklin- Yeah, it's where all kids go to visit their grandparents. You should see the drivers license renewal office-- there's no one under 85 yrs. old. And one after another they fail the vision test. It's scary.

Marvin- Thank you and thank you.

Corrina- My BFF always says our kids are so cute playing together she wants to punch them in the head.

Kristi- Thank you!

Hah--my mother and her family used to spend the winter in Delray Beach when she was a little girl.

2009-08-14T13:54:07.612+10:00

Kristie- Well I don't know what I'd wear-- but my four year surely will be in full costume.

Brutalism- Thanks!

COPH- Google images of Fidel, there's no mistaking, it could only have been him! My friend/s worked in the same dept you're in. Veronica-- can't remember last name but last I heard she was still there?

Rosangela- Good explananation, thanks!

2009-08-14T09:19:37.803+10:00

Btw, bars are called hotels because in the past, when licensing laws were very strict, pubs had to offer accommodation to get a license to sell alcohol. Many times they just changed the name to accomplish with the new legislation. I wrote some more in my blog: thisaustralianlife.blogspot.com

My favourite pic is the 'peace' last one, but the one with the smily old lady is great as well! Loved all the photos!

jajajaja only a true miami chick would guess castro before saying saddam or the ayatollah or whatever.

=D you did mention you went to USF, which department do you friends work in?

That race looks like a blast. Great pics!

2009-08-14T03:55:58.788+10:00

What's with the superhero costumes and such? Just something fun to add to the race? Looks like a good time.

I'd love to see photos of you all participating next year. Whatever will you wear? :)

2009-08-13T23:51:12.979+10:00

Ana- Next year I'll put more pressure on you :).

Jenny- I know, better than Freddo frogs-- that's only when we need the big guns.

Darnonymous- But there are "hotels" near me with no "hotel rooms"??

JD- People come from all over the world to run this race-- it's 14km, I think that's about 7 miles. It goes from the city to Bondi Beach and I did see some stragglers. If you come next year we totally have a guest room.. though we do require clothing...

2009-08-13T22:31:29.916+10:00

Awesome photos (I especially love the last one). This looks like fun, tho as a spectator not a participant. How far do they run? I could get into the costume part if I didn't have to run. Do they let people just kind of straggle behind?
