North, towards Avalon and Palm Beach (where Home and Away are filmed)

South of Collaroy, Dee Why and on towards Manly. We are about 15kms from the city.

Mixing with the locals.
We have now moved into our rental in Collaroy Plateau.
We went for a walk down to the headland at Collaroy, as part of the Northern Beaches peninsula.

Mollie starting her second school.
Collaroy Plateau Primary School and her class 'Tassie Tigers'.

sightseeing.

Joel did brave a second go, but Mollie had had enough.

Poor image quality, but there was a slide in Luna Park and the kids wanted a go.
Not sure who is more terrified! LOL!

Driving a pink Suzuki around a track... oh to be child again, and be happy with the simple things.

Luna Park.
Saturday afternoon, we decided to find some action in the city.

An afternoon in Manly.
No, not a gay bar... Manly is a beach suburb on the North Headland and Northern Beaches.
Something that Perth lacks. Lot's of cafes and bars along the beach.

Cremorne Point.
The view from my run. I have found an 8K route around Cremorne and Mosman which has quite nice views of the city.
I wont miss the apartment, but will the views.

Meet the locals.
Thankfully not dangerous, but lots of them in the trees. Mollie is not to keen to walk under them. Wait until she meets a Huntsman.

So we finally made it to Sydney.
We have temporary accommodation in a 2-bed apartment in Cremorne Point. This view is very close to our apartment.
The apartment is tiny and it didn't take long for us to receive a note under the door about the noise. :/

Two days, two containers and 200 boxes later and we are finally out of Greenwell Street.

Here we go again...

Lynette, Anthony and the boys.
Trigg Island Cafe's profits will suffer without Lynette and Anita.
Anthony, where is your blog mate?

Not everyone made it onto the picture... sorry Jane.
Again, more sad goodbyes.

One of the hardest decisions, taking Mollie out of her school and away from her friends.
Karrinyup Primary School has great teachers, pupils and parents.

Joel having to say goodbye to his 'Daycare' friends.... and not too happy about it!

Moving to Sydney seems like the right thing to do, until you have to start saying goodbye to some amazing friends in Perth.
