Day 1 Surry Hills, Sydney

We have been excitedly waiting for Flat Stanley to arrive since Heath called on Tuesday. Flat Stanley had his first trip courtesy of Australia Post. Here he is popping out of his envelope to come in our front door.




















Being flat our friend Rob didn't need to open the door very far.















Fairy had a session of hydrotherapy at RPA and Flat Stanley came along to see what it was all about. They even let him have a turn on the zippy board, just like the one Fairy and Heath's Daddy had when they were 7. The physiotherapist uses them to do exercises in the water.

When Flat Stanley got out he had to shake himself dry,














Lissa the Physio was giving him a hand,

Then Flat Stanley decided to play Where's Wally, can you see him in the exercise equipment in the photo below?





We went sight-seeing on the way home, but it was very wet and hard to see the sights. Flat Stanley was very excited seeing so many cars and trains and buses, despite the rain. Can you see the fire engine poking it's nose out?

















This is Central Railway station, where Heath, Fairy and Tony - along with the rest of the family, had got off the Train and onto the light rail during the school holidays.

As Fairy had made him a rain coat, he could just see Centrepoint tower through the rain.
















Finally back in Surry Hills, too wet to visit the Opera House or the Harbour Bridge today, so Flat Stanley is tucked up warm and dry chatting to Ted and relaxing on one of the cushions Fairy had made.
