Good Morning again....since we could not hook up at the hotel easily we have found an Internet Shop......after visiting our pastry shop again and enjoying some incredible coffee.......too bad they don't do refills here, we again come to the Internet spot to send our blog and check email.
We are on our way into the city to go to the Maritime Museum. But first let me tell you about yesterday!
We started out by arriving (by train) at Circular Quay where all the ferries arrive and all the Harbor Cruises come and go. We walked over to the Sydney Opera house and took a tour. It lasted about an hour and was very informative! We checked out shows for yesterday evening at the same time.
We walked about and grabbed a sandwich for lunch. After which we hopped aboard the Manly ferry. We rode this round trip and this gave us a very good look at the opera house and Sydney Harbor Bridge and sights. By now it was time for ice cream (it's everywhere!)....we people watched and soaked up the sun and breeze from the water. We then decided to hop a ferry to see the Maritime museum and possibly the Aquarium. What we did not know was that it was the 'milk run' stopping at several locations before getting to the spot we needed to go. This left us without enough time to see the museum. So again we rode round trip.
We walked back to the Opera house and bought tickets for a play and then grabbed dinner before walking (need I say we walked a lot?) back for the play. We saw 'Don's Party' which was a comedy......occasionally missing lines either d/t HOH or d/t accents.
At the end of the evening we caught the train and then walked back to our hotel arriving at 11:30! A long day but we could not have asked for prettier weather.
Hope all at home are doing well.....we are missing you already and we have 6 weeks to go! The next 4 will be very busy I am sure!! The Halls promised us they would keep us busy!
Love to All! The Duffies
P.S. Emails welcome!
