We stayed for 2 nights at S&T place a cousin of mine in a beautiful leafy suburb near the beach in Avalon north of Sydney. We had arranged to view a long term (1 year) rental place while we were still in SA – a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 2 garage apartment in Homebush Bay – right near the water with tennis courts, a proper multi lane lap pool, gym, running tracks, cycling tracks and right next to the Awesome Sydney Olympic Park with unreal facilities. If you love sport, this is heaven. I have attached some pics of the place. If you want to have a look at the actual unit we are renting: this is the link to it:

When we went to see the actual unit it was a nice size – difficult tot gauge but probably 100-110m2 and well kitted out with piped gas 2 balconies – one piped for a gas braai and just very civilised. As I was walking through to the bedrooms, I remarked in passing to the agent that there really was a lot of cupboard space and waved my hand in the direction of a set of double doors. ‘O that’s not a cupboard he said flinging the doors open to reveal a laundry room perhaps 6m2 with a tumble dryer mounted on the wall, space for a washing machine and its own sink – it was so cool, Carmen said she thought I was going to demand the papers right there and then to sign – I almost did. To cut a long story short, we loved the place and so within 28 hours of our arrival we had found a long term place to stay which we love!, signed the lease, paid the bond (deposit), got approval, collected our car and phone, bought and updated a Garmin and been feeling altogether very chuffed with ourselves – knowing of course there is a Somebody watching over us and for some unknown reason, smoothing our path.
