With exception to highly processed foods and a nod to indulging with moderation, I love it all. Give me carnitas piled high in a street taco, a hearty kale salad with homemade croutons, rolls and rolls of sushi any day.

Sydney Opera House

 

Seeing the Sydney Opera House in living color was surreal and oddly familiar. I’ve seen it many times in movies and magazines; maybe that’s why I had a deja vu moment. The iconic theatre looks as grand in person as it does in photographs. After a full day of rain the day prior, we were glad the sun came out to play to see us off to Melbourne, where we spent our last night before heading back to the States.
