Watson's Bay

After we had some bad news (which I'll update you with shortly) we headed out to Watsons Bay for the day. It was just beautiful. A stunning Sydney day.

Murray on the Ferry ride over there. Can you believe it! Murray on Public Transport!

What I think they call "The Gap"... I can see why.



Some crazy rock Lizard.



Us!

Sheltering in the tree from the wind to eat some famous Doyle's Fish & Chips.

Mum visisted! Queen's Birthday long weekend

I know I've been a very bad blogger - so I thought I'd give you all a few updates!

First of all - Mum came to visit! And we had a fabulous time, despite Murray working all long weekend and it being the worst weather I've experienced in Sydney!

On Friday just after she arrived at the airport we went off to see
Priscilla Queen of the Desert at Star Casino. It was every bit as funny as the movie and then some. The costumes were fantastic!!!

On Saturday we went to
The Rocks Market, which Mum has always wanted to see. We managed to stay dry and check out the Opera House and Circular Quay.

After lunch the weather was just too awful to do anything much at all. So we jumped on the Ferry and took a return trip out to Watsons Bay. It was so wet and cold we didn't get out - not even for Doyles! I have since been back to Watsons Bay though. To give you an idea of what the weather was like though...

It fined up on the way home though where we got a good view of the Opera House and city.

We went out for a nice dinner down at Manly on Saturday night - seafood of course! (yukko!)

I can't remember what we did the rest of the weekend.... this is why I need to update my blog more! Oh I know! We went up to the Blue Mountains to visit some friends! Leura was lovely. :)
