Sydney for the weekend

My folks are over again this week from blighty so as per usual we upped sticks and abandoned the kids with them ! This time Maxine had to go to Sydney the following week with work so we worked around that to go for the weekend. After a week of rain in Melbourne (* I'm blaming the English visitors here ), it was good to see the sun shining in Sydney. We did the usual wandering around Circular Quay to look around "The Rocks" historic area, Opera House & Toon bridge copy. We also ventured into Government House which sits in the Botanical Gardens - well worth a visit as its a stunning part of downtown Sydney. While Maxine worked on Monday I wandered around in the sun (after a very large relaxing breakfast, coffee & reading of the paper!) and headed over to Darling Harbour on one of the ferries. Now thats the way all Monday mornings should be spent let me tell you! A few pics are here.
