pouring rain

Initially, I planned to take part of today's Seven Bridges Walk. I registered it. However, the sky (or the god, to Catholics) said that I should stay at home. Not long after the breakfast on the bridge event, it was the pouring rain all over Sydney.

I decided to do some Wii Fit Plus exercises instead. Late in the afternoon, the sky turned (slightly) better, and I decided to participate some of the Seven Bridges Walk. The photo above was my Event Passport and my wristband.

Here's an interesting sign near one of the bridges. And please excuse the not-so-beautiful handwriting.

In case you have problem reading the smaller writing, it says "NO NEW BRIDGE".

As for the breakfast on the bridge event, turfs were laid for the this important. In case you are interested, the transporting and laying turfs require labours from 3 states. Without a doubt, those lucky 6,000 people seem to be enjoying the very unique breakfast on the bridge. (to Don: unlike the high class Don, we don't mind having breakfast on the grass, the not-very-high-class picnic style.)

Here's the news clip from Seven News tonight:

The Wii Fit Plus exercise of course ended up as competition between Laurent and I. The new Wii Fit Plus is easier for multiplayers, and it calculates the calories as you work/play through it. It said that I burnt 106 kcal from the exercise. To reward myself, I had two scoops of ice cream afterwards.

Unlike Don who enjoys his colourful dorm-life in reputable Rochester, this is my uneventful Sunday.
