FIVB tourney

So it was random that we turned the television on and there was a FIVB tournament going on at Manly beach.  I had to look this up and we were in luck there was one more day going on.  So Sunday we went to Manly and got tickets to the bronze and gold medal matches.  It was so hot though!  Aram and Greg didn't realize how in between points, there is super loud music and pretty much a DJ.  Here's just a bunch of photos from the day.  Aram also didn't realize how ripped the women are that were playing.  It was cool that Australia won the tournament and one of the women was actually from Manly Beach.

















Had to rush to get these seats on the ferry.

Sydney Street Art

So I have seen street art around Sydney in certain parts of town, but had heard there is some good stuff.  I went out armed with my camera to check it out.  This post will mostly just be photos.  My favorite photo is of Tony Abbott, the former Prime Minister of Australia.  This one below popped up because there is a ballot vote in Australia for marriage equality.

Love this!


That is all for today.  No big history lesson here!  Hope everyone back in the States is doing well.  Aram is still doing papers for finals week, so lots of exploring on my own.
