Day 18 We were up early this morning to go and buy some food from the supermarket for the next 5 days. We then headed towards Circular Quay to get our tickets for the ferry to Watsons Bay. Watsons Bay was previously a Military Base that was made into a National Park around 20 years ago. There was not a huge amount to do except enjoy the landscape, so we found a few benches to sit and read. One of the benches that we sat was next to the spot that was most popula...

Day 20 We decided to explore Newcastle today, although there is not a lot to do considering it is the 2nd biggest city in New South Wales, Sydney is first. First stop was the Obelisk, this is the highest point in Newcastle and was a popular viewing point for Hayleys comet. Lorna was more interested in the palm tree branch she found, and tried to joust Al with it. From here we walked down to the Bogey Hole. On the way Lorna decided to roll down the hill....act...

Day 17 We had a late start to the day as we couldn't get our arses into gear, but once we were up we headed straight to the internet cafe so we could catch up with our photos and blogs. We spent 4 hours doing it, and we got really pissed off. We decided we needed a relaxing walk and remembered good ole' Bill telling us that there was a nice one between Bondi and Coogee. We went on the bus to Bondi and our walk took about an hour and a half to meander through to...

Day 16 Lorna was excited about this day for ages. So much so that her sleepless night meant we got up a little later than planned. We took a walk into the CBD to find the correct bus stop, to get us to Palm Beach. Lorna was so tired that she needed a coffee from McDonalds to wake her up. We got on the bus and it took around an hour and a half. It was a bargain ride as it only cost us about 3 pounds. When we got there it started to rain and Al was keen to go ...
