Last day in Sydney and I spent it faffing about - no change there for me! I had my packing to do, washing to do, and all that sort of palaver so I faffed about in the morning doing those kinds of things. Then I headed into the City in the afternoon for a last look at the Opera House and the Bridge. I also went on the little red train that goes around the Botanical Gardens! It was such a cute little train, only cost $5 for the ride (student concession, sweeeet...

I finally got to go to the Blue Mountains today - not that I got to see anything as the whole place was covered in fog! It was so ridiculous, that I just had to keep laughing on my way around the place. The train ride up to the mountains was really nice, so I got to see a bit of scenery that was under the fog. As we made our way further up on the train, the fog just crept in and didn't stop. Oh dear, I thought, not a good sign. However, Margaret (she accompa...

Had a really long, but lovely walk today. The sun was lovely and shiny and warm, so it was probably the perfect day to have a nice coastal walk. It was a little too hot perhaps, but never mind :D I almost gave up by the time I got to Clovelly Bay, but asked a couple where Coogee was and they said it wasn't far, so I trudged on. I got the train to Bondi (only one stop from Edgecliff, or a half hour walk from Rose Bay and I thought I'd be walking a lot today) i...

The weather didn't look too great in the morning, and it rained a fair bit so I was a bit miserable about the day. However, the rain did ease off and so I decided to head out for the Harbour Bridge walk. Luckily the rain held off and so it ended up being quite a nice sunny afternoon so it was great for a wander about. I took the train to Milson's Point which is the other end of the bridge to the harbour side, and walked across the coathanger. Saw a few people...

It rained quite a bit during the night, and a fair bit during the day - booooooooooo. So, museum day it was today. I went to the Museum of Contemporary Art first as I could take the ferry straight to Circular Quay and walk over from the harbour. Love that ferry - so convenient! Especially as I bought a weekly travel pass on Sunday and have been getting very good value from it. It only cost $38.20 and I can use it on the bus, the ferry, and the train! Only i...
