Maddy's dragon boat team got a spot to compete in the Chinese New Year regatta in Sydney's Darling Harbour today. The rest of us couldn't resist tagging along, especially since G was already in Sydney on Friday for work. It was soggy (just ask drenched Maddy) but great fun.  We only planned for a quick up-and-back trip but save us a seat, Sydney, we'll be back soon!

​(By the way, the team's two boats did really well, finishing first and fifth in the final heat. Hats off to those tenacious girls who paddled through some serious torrents.)
