This past weekend, we took the kids over to the Sydney Olympic Park to see some of the venues from the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Our main destination for the day was to spend sometime inside the Aquatic Centre. They have developed a lovely waterpark inside the centre in addition to the HUGE Olympic size pools. The girls were so excited to go for a swim. It is winter here and we are missing the HOT, summer-like weather. They have been desperate to throw on their "swimmers" and jump into a pool. They swam for 3 hours and were completely exhausted when it was time to go home.
Is that Tom over there? Oh no, it is NOT. Tom (Twiggy) is much thinner, he has hair on his head and not so much on his chest - LOL!
Look at those happy faces! They swam their guts out. As we were getting ready to leave the aquatic centre the girls wanted to take their picture with a World Champion Swimmer. They did not realize until they saw for themselves how tall champion swimmers are. We had a great time and look forward to going back to experience more Olympic adventures.
Apparently Grace won GOLD with her OLYMPIC swimming SPIRIT!
