We were once American ex-pats exploring down under. Now we are Aussie ex-pats getting reacquainted with American life.

ROC and Craic
Mike was away at the big regional frisbee tournament this weekend, along with easily half the people we know in Sydney. I was doing fun stuff around town with the other half.
Saturday, I did the ROC at Olympic Park with two friends. It was a lot of fun, and I took some GoPro footage. I don't know if any of it actually came out well, but if it did I'll post some in the future. The most exciting obstacle was the "Leap of Faith", which is about a 20 foot free-fall into some air pillows.
After that it was time to cruise to a few different breweries with some friends that had moved away from Sydney, but were back for a visit. The crew was predominantly Irish, and we had some good craic. One of our friends trains German shepherds in her spare time, and brought two along. One was Murphy, her dog we've seen before. The other one was Moose, who is GIGANTIC. Apparently, Moose was training to be a police dog but got fired because he was too friendly and wouldn't bite - too cute. They were very well-behaved companions, especially considering all the BBQ meat that was consumed in their presence. Mostly they just slept, which secured our perimeter.
Now, time for a lazy Sunday afternoon bike ride.
