Big and Little Wallabies

Last weekend Paddy had a sleepover at our new place in Abbotsford. On Sunday morning we caught the ferry in to Darling Harbour and for 'yum cha' in Chinatown, before we stumbled across the entire Australian rugby squad. They were doing a "meet the plebs" exercise prior to the first Test Match of the new Four Nations series (NZ, Aus, SA and Arg) that kicks off tomorrow, with the first Bledisloe Cup match in Sydney against The All Blacks. 










Every little boy loves pink. (?)

Still got it.

For some wallabies, it had been a very long day....
