The Brent Adventures: January 2008
http://thebrents.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 21, 2008. I'm so excited because this evening we get to see The National. I happened to come across an article in Time Out. Mentioning that they will be playing at Recital Hall as part of the Sydney Festival. These guys have quickly risen to become one of my very favorite bands (thanks, James and Amanda! And I'm thrilled to be able to see them perform live. You need to check them out. My wife is a big fan." She then asks, "A big fan of Clogs or The National? Posted by Anne and Chris.

The Brent Adventures: February 2008
http://thebrents.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 25, 2008. This weekend we head to the Blue Mountains! Well, sorta hard. I knock the windshield wipers at least 30 times reaching for the turn signal. And, while I swear from the right-hand driver's seat that I am in the dead center of the lane, I'm actually kissing the curb on the left. It's a very strange feeling. Chris decides to be the brave one and gets behind the wheel for the 2-hour drive into the mountains. There is a sort of swing/hammock contraption, several lounge chairs, a bar...

The Brent Adventures: Kiwis in the Outback
http://thebrents.blogspot.com/2008/07/kiwis-in-outback.html
Friday, July 11, 2008. Kiwis in the Outback. Wow We only have a month left before our big adventure ends. I can't believe it. In this time my brother-in-law had gotten married, two of my best friends have had babies and my brother is well on his way to graduating college, yet it's gone by so quickly and Chris and I can't believe our time here is coming to an end. We leave for New Zealand today for two weeks and will be living in a campervan(! Love, Anne and Chris. Posted by Anne and Chris. We will be her...

The Brent Adventures: Burpees and bear crawls
http://thebrents.blogspot.com/2008/04/burpees-and-bear-crawls.html
Tuesday, April 15, 2008. Burpees and bear crawls. It's a love/hate relationship. This all came about because over the past few months, we've noticed a peculiar outdoor group fitness phenomenon - people charging at each other with boxing gloves, throwing around medicine balls, etc. It's everywhere. We were curious and agreed it might be good to try something other than running - I believe this is called "cross training". I get up the next morning instantly sad and flabby? Our next session begins on Monday.

The Brent Adventures: Zoo zombies
http://thebrents.blogspot.com/2008/05/zoo-zombies.html
Saturday, May 24, 2008. It's been awhile since I've posted anything, but we've been whipping around the States and just got back last week after a whirlwind trip that included stops to Chicago, Iowa, Arkensas and finally Kansas City, for Jeff and Sarah's beautiful wedding. Phew! Naturally, we arrive completely jet-lagged and decide it makes perfect sense to go to the zoo. Who wouldn't? Did it have a duckbill? Maybe there's a picture. Posted by Anne and Chris.

The Brent Adventures: June 2008
http://thebrents.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 6, 2008. Okay, so we made it to Tasmania and YES the devil really does exist! This is a long post, but there's so much to write about! A few weeks ago we went to the Sydney Writer's Festival (rather serendipitously) to see Chris's friend Thomas Kohnstamm, who was in Sydney promoting his book Do Travel Writers Go To Hell? Grace's book, The Honey Spinner. Gerhard raps on our door and says it's almost time to leave. Ugh, can't we just sleep in and enjoy the deck again? But we end up having enou...

The Brent Adventures: July 2008
http://thebrents.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 31, 2008. 1 I immediately forgot what to do with my feet. Thanks for taking charge, Mr. Instructor Man. 2 Grabbing the steering bar is an apparent no-no, so of course, it's the first thing I go for. 3 We landed in a field full of sheep poop. Lots and lots of sheep poop. Posted by Anne and Chris. Friday, July 11, 2008. Kiwis in the Outback. We leave for New Zealand today for two weeks and will be living in a campervan(! Needless to say, we are cramming as much as we can into the end of our ...
