Here we are hanging out outside the Vocations Expo with some of our new Aussie friends!
We spent a lot of our week at Bangaroo just outside Darling Harbour--here we are waiting for Pope Benedict XVI to arrive!!
Can you see him? That's the pope on the boat!

Meeting people from the States!
Our first night in Sydney we bumped into Kelly's home parish, Holy Trinity Catholic Church from Bridgewater, NJ. They taught us the funnest game we played all week, "Ride the Pony" and we taught them the Jesus Jive. We hear the Jesus Jive made it's debut in NJ a couple of weeks later at Stephanie's (their youth minister) wedding. Congratulations Stephanie!
Photos from around Sydney!
The first night we arrived in Sydney (actually Randwich at Our Lady of the Sacred Heart parish) we were dying to go to the beach! Coogee beach was only a 30 minute walk from OLSH and highly recommended by the local teens we met earlier in the day.
The next morning we were eager to see the city! The Sydney Opera House and harbour are pretty impressive!

Diocesan Youth Festival in Bathurst
At the youth festival in Bathurst we saw a lot of different musical talent--this group of university singers from the Phillipines was one of our favorites! Check them out for yourself!
Bonfire at the Farm!
