Today we said afuwiedersehen to Cairns and arrived in Sydney. Our hotel is really nice, just a Travelodge but it’s got all we need and we’re on the 14th floor so we have great views over the city. It’s a while away from the harbour but it’s a nice walk and there is a train station nearby so that’s OK. We dumped our stuff (after a twenty min wait in reception whilst a tour bus of old ladies tried to work out how to use the lift) and wandered into town. We walked around the Opera House and looked at the spectacular views.
In the evening we decided to splash out on a swanky meal so we chose a restaurant underneath the bridge, right on the harbour with views overlooking the Opera House. It was lovely. Well, until I choked on a piece of Parma ham and threw up into a napkin. How classy. Literally the nicest restaurant I’ve ever been in and I manage to make an arse of myself. Nonetheless, the food was really good and we really had a good evening; it’s just such a great location.
Love from us xxx

Don't worry Siobahn, just ask Mark about the Pizza Hut on his B'day, Bernard did the same, so you're not alone. Restaurant sounds amazing though! Look at me, see, you can teach an old bird new tricks!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHehehe, not entirely sure it's a good thing to be compared to Bernard though. Oh, it was just so embarassing!
