John and Pam hosted the lot of us (myself, husband, son, parents and sister, whew!) in the ground floor unit below their residence for 3 weeks. We all converged on Sydney for a wedding and family reunion of sorts, and our party's volume waxed and waned like the moon throughout our stay. But throughout it they were fantastic hosts and we even got the chance to spend some time sharing stories and drinks with them.

It was the perfect place for my parents and 2.5 year old son, who spent the most time there and got to enjoy a peaceful side to a major metropolis.

All in all, everyone had a wonderful time and we owe them a great deal of thanks for accommodating us!
