Arrived to Sydney!

I arrived to Sydney on Thursday, the fourth of June and was welcomed into the Grimshaw home. The Australian government quarantines American students for one week because of recent cases of swine flu, so I've been mostly confined to the home, but I couldn't imagine a better place to be stuck than the Grimshaw house. They have a pool and tennis court in their backyard, and a comfortable tv room where I've spent most of my time. I've come to love the different Australian football games (rugby league, rugby union, and Australian footy). On the post-quarantine schedule: a trip to sydney zoo, a rugby game, a ride on the ferry across the Sydney harbor, and climbing the Harbour bridge.
