5 Oceans of the World

When Adele was visiting, we took walks along the east and west coast of Australia. She was in Perth, Western Australia for one week, then we went to Sydney, New South Wales (which is on the east coast). We noticed that every beach had a park with an installed set of workout equipment. Have you seen those before? And if you're wondering, no we aren't that obsessed with working out. We were just messing around and partly making fun of people who pretend like they are working out!

We started a little contest to see who can do the most pull ups. Obviously Adele one for a few reasons... she's jacked, competitive, super athletic and 18. She'll kill me for posting these pics, by the way! We also made it our mission to do pull ups in on every ocean of the world. On this trip we banged out Indian Ocean (Perth's Cottesloe Beach) and the Pacific Ocean (Sydney's Bondi Beach). So now we have Atlantic, Arctic and Southern Ocean. Atlantic will be easy since she's going to NYU this year. Arctic will be a challenge (surprisingly Ricky has already been to Greenland & Iceland for work). Southern will be easy. We already know of a place we want to return... Kangaroo Island! The resort we stayed out, Southern Ocean Lodge, hence the name, faces the Southern Ocean!

So here are our fun pics thus far! Hopefully I'll be able to add the other ocean's pull up photos by this time next year!
