Sydney

still no photos, facebook is not a nice product at present


A wonderful week, staying at Lane Cove caravan park where we lived for 5 months 25 years ago when we first moved to Sydney. Park is still vey much the same, but no bird cage any more,and is now managed by National Parks.

Had several visits with Kerryn, and used her unit as a base on several days. Did our traditional trip to Chinatown on Friday night, and had breakfast at a lovely cafe in Roseville(Echo on the Marina) on Saturday morning. Kerryn specialises in finding superb locations for cafe style meals.

Peter organised new sunglasses, the only medical component of this trip to Sydney - we will do the dentist next time.

Caught up with several friends, many of whom are now retired, or working part time, which eased the pressure on the weekend. Much eating and drinking.

Put the car in on Monday, as it is still giving us problems, sometimes the accelerator doesn't seem to work. Still no fix, perhaps it is the cruise control?? Will sort it out in Adelaide when we get home.

Overall, an excellent week in Sydney
