6.4 million

What a Saturday!  I LOVE not working on the weekends because it allows me to have one heck of a time with my favorite accomplice.  Brad and I started the day off with a coffee and a stroll though the Bondi markets sampling cookies and people watching. 
 Yesterday was beautiful the sun was shining and there was a nice breeze to keep us cool as we wandered around Bondi.  The board below shows all the different coffees that these bondi kids sip on all day everyday.  I usually go for the long black but if I want to be fancy and high maintenance I order a strong skinny flat white 3/4 milk. Just delightful...Brad has been on a soy flat white kick..soy it up babu.

 I am going to make more of an effort to carry around the camera so I can snap more pictures of day to day life over here.  This car is a staple part of a beach town off the coast of Australia.  Surfboards tied to the top of the car, wet suits drying out the window and towels hanging wherever.  If you peek in the windows there is a good chance you see the actual surfer taking an afternoon nap resting up for the evening ride.
 We walked over to Bronte which is a town right next to Bondi.  Brad as been raving about M Cafe and their breakfast bowls..I mean these bowls were a taste of heaven.  Fruit, yogurt, bircher muesli and toasted muesli..this alone is a good enough reason to come visit us way down here.



 After brekkie we were off on a hunt for some special items for an event we had Saturday evening.  We took some short cuts and got off track a little here and there but that made the day even more fun.  As you can see the houses around these parts are pretty sick. HUGE and millions of dollars..I would be lucky if I even got my foot on the front door step. Well my luck changed. There was an open house and auction at one of the mansions by the sea. If you are wondering, yes we did put a bid on the house. Brad and I would look good in this house and throw some killer dinner and dance parties you are all invited to.


              THIS HOUSE (click here to see our new home)  Brad works hard for his millions so he has no problem spending some on a sweet house. Plenty of bedrooms, private pool and fantastic entertaining area. I would have to say the best part about touring this house was when we were up on the second floor back balcony.  As other potential house buyers were talking to the real estate agent Brad was yelling for Joanne to come into the house because dinner was ready.  He did this in a loud and very country accent.  They knew we were serious about putting a bid down after this because we were already role playing and making it home.


 After a great day of walking around, eating, coffee drinking and hunting for props it was time to shower and shave. It was soccer banquet time. An evening to be filled with awards, Chinese food, karaoke, wine and trouble. Our friends Mr. Love Heart and Ms Pinky came over for some pre dinner drinks then we were off for yet another night to go down in history.
