Time with Kesh and Mike

Arriving at the Sydney airport was like coming home. We got off the plane and got our luggage and then headed out to wait in the pick-up area for Kesh and her dad to come and get us.
After a quick hello it was off to Bexley (the suburb where Kesh lives) for some sleep.
While hanging with Kesh and her family we mainly just hung out doing what her family was doing.
Saturday we went to the fish market as we hadn't been to one. It was crazy to see all the people and all the fresh fish. True to her character Laura bought chocolate covered strawberries at the fish market.
That night Kesh and Laura headed out to the RSL with Kesh's 2 aunts and her grandma for some dinner. The picture below is what Kesh's aunt and grandma ordered (a seafood platter), Laura got a kid's burger and fries. After dinner it was off to look at some Christmas lights. Some people went all out while others just began to get into it. One house paints a new story on plywood sheets every year. It was amazing.
On Sunday we went to church and then out for lunch to chinese. That's right Laura is expanding her tastebuds again.
Sunday night was family dinner night so we got to meet some of Kesh's aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins. It was good to chat and enjoy my first pavlova this trip (mmmm it was good).
Monday was breakfast on the beach with Kesh and her aunt and then a walk along the water. This is something that we could get used to. That night it was Laura's second Zumba class. She's getting better but still can't shake her hips.
Tuesday it was off to Strathfield Station to catch the train to Hornsby to stay with Mike again. As we're still getting used to the train system we took the wrong train and arrived in Hornsby 1.5 hours later instead of taking the 20 minute one. Oh well it was a nice ride.
Since camp is starting on Friday we've decided to just lay low and rest to be ready for full on going starting Friday.
Do you believe Laura orded this?

These people really get into decorations
