Yesterday we decided to do a little excursion to Circular Quay and the Opera house with the boys.
The both love trains, so we took the train into the city so that they could have the experience.
It was a cold and windy winters day here in Sydney so standing still for too long was freezing.
But it was great getting out and also get another family photo.

It was Kim's birthday on the weekend.
In the morning the boys and I woke her up with singing Happy Birthday to her.
In the evening we had a babysitter so that we could have an evening just the two of us. We went to the Bridge Room restaurant in the city, food was nice!

The other day Aiden cam back from daycare with Spiderman face paint.
Normally he avoids face paint so him having the whole face painted was a first.

Recently Kim bought Aiden a yellow bumble bee umbrella and gumboots.
They will come in handy now that winter is here.

Yesterday Aiden went with his daycare group to the filming of 'Play along with Sam'.
All very formal with model release forms to be signed, what T-shirts they had to wear etc. Aiden said that he liked the dancing!
I hope we get a chance to see the show at some stage and it will be interesting to see if we can see Aiden in it (he was sitting to the side).
Earlier this week Aiden went with daycare to the local park and they happened to meet some of the players from the Rabbitohs (National Rugby League).
Apparently he went missing from the group at one point and when they went looking for him it turned out that he was chatting to the players.

The Osaka aquarium is massive and very impressive. The centre piece is the massive tank in the middle with two large whale sharks and which is also full of other sharks such as hammerheads.

Tontonburi is know as the chefs/kitchen area. Here you can buy everything needed for a japanese restaurant.
It is also full of actual restaurants and other oddities such as more exotic places. It has what is known as Osaka's best Ramen restaurant (the one with the long counter in the photos below) - and Yes, the Ramen was very good.
Here it is also possible to eat specialties such as the Puffa fish.
It was also one of the few places where I saw real Samurai swords for sale.

Below the Osaka tower is a restaurant area with lots of yummi food.
The area was once a very modern part of Osaka, and worth a visit during the night.
