Slow day in Sydney

November 2nd--We took it pretty easy today as we had to get ourselves ready to leave for the outback tomorrow. We started the morning off with laundry, blogging and updating pictures. After that, we walked over to David Jones which is one of the big department stores here in Sydney. We ate lunch in the Food Hall there which is on the basement floor. We then looked through their Christmas section at ornaments and such. From here, we walked back to the apartment for a rest. I wasn't feeling very good...trying to catch a cold. So, I laid down to rest and Mike took the kids to the playground at Darling Harbor for the afternoon. He ran into a couple there with their daughter who were from Texas. They now work and live in Melbourne, but were visiting Sydney. They had lived in the neighborhood next to us in Frisco...small world!When they got back, Mike walked over to Regus business center to print off our itinerary and directions for camping in the outback. We then went to eat at Nando's for dinner. After dinner, we headed back to finish packing up. We had to rearrange some stuff because we are going to store one suitcase in Sydney. Then it was to bed early for everyone. We have to get up early tomorrow morning for our flight to Alice Springs.
