Sydney Christmas Day

Another beautiful hotel Christmas tree.
I sewed stockings out of the leftover bazaar flag fabric to make things feel a little more homey. The kids had fun opening a few presents on Christmas morning. I love reminding them that this year is a year of experiences and not presents. Being overseas is a good way to keep Christmas to a minimum.
We headed to the Sydney Aquarium for a day of fishy fun. We say Manatee, they say Dugong.
Fun fact: What is the only male in the animal kingdom that can get pregnant?
Answer: Sea horses and Thomas Beatie
Seeing the creatures from inside the aquarium tunnel was really cool.
Wouldn't want to be in the tank with this guy!
John getting some good pictures.
After the aquarium we ended the day in the hotel with a wonderful Christmas dinner. Santa even came to visit. We told him he better get moving because the kids in the U.S.A were waiting for him.
