I could be a municipal worker…
Tuesday, November 20th, 2007Now that the weather is good, no great, it is time for Karen and I to do some exploring of our new city, especially as we are getting visitors soon, and need to show them a good time. So we woke up on Saturday went down to the wharf got some coffee and waited for the ferry. We enjoyed a lovely ferry trip to the city and when we departed we made our way to the rocks.
I have to admit that as far as flea markets go the Rocks flea market is pretty dull and could use a good old South African touch. After this we wondered around the base of the harbor bridge (as the walk up the bridge is wayyyyy to expensive).
Now we needed some lunch, we got a sandwich and enjoyed the view of all the people at circular quay, and managed to piss off a few seagulls. After which we made our way to the botanical gardens, after walking around for the entire day so far, we made like municipal workers found some shade and had a snooze.
Now as you remember I mentioned that the weather had just improved, when we woke up in the morning it seemed to be quite a muggy day, so we forgot to put on any sun cream and of course the problem with falling asleep in the shade is the sun moves. So needless to say we made our way home at about 4ish looking like tomatoes.
All in all it was a good time, and recommend it to any visitors to Sydney.
