Tennis Champions Down Under Tour

Mum took me to see some veteran tennis players out at Sydney Olympic Park. They were playing at the Ken Rosewall Arena, the same court that I have played on!

This is Pat Cash, an Australian who won Wimbledon. He does awesome volleys! He was playing against Wayne Ferreira.

We also saw John McEnroe, who has an awesome bad temper. He was totally losing it with the linespeople. It was funny to watch. He ended up winning against Mats Wilander, who mum was going for. Not bad for a 51 year-old. But then the next day had to play Pat Rafter, an Australian who has won the US Open and 15 years younger than him and got smashed.

Annual Cockatoo Island Campout

My mothers' group went to Cockatoo Island again this year. We had a bit of rain but that didn't stop us from having a good time. Cockatoo Island was once used for naval shipbuilding and repair, that's why we are sitting on cannon on the island!

We also had our usual treasure hunt and Kris Kringle activities.
