Strolling around Sydney ...

---

We didn't get up for breakfast as we were both knackered. Moved our stuff into a 4-bed dorm that we had to ourselves, which was a bonus! Then went for brunch in town and walked around Darling Harbour. We had a browse round some shops and I introduced Lucy to the delights of Oz clothes shopping. My latest purchase being a white leather bag from "Witchery" which is très practical for a backpacker, n'est-ce pas?! We saw a 3D film "Sharks" at the IMAX theatre in Darling Harbour, fully expecting to shit our pants as these 3D great whites lunged out of the screen at us! Unfortunately it was made by a Jacques Costeau-type marine biologist who wanted to "educate" us and show how beautiful these misunderstood creatures are! Stuff that, we wanted Jaws-tastic gore and big teeth! So we were quite disappointed but did get to wear some huge and very funky 3D glasses... Went to the Sydney Aquarium hunting for more shark action and fair enough we did get quite close to some big ones this time.

Blew the budget at a really nice Italian restaurant near the hostel, then back to the room stuffed by pasta to watch cheesy Australian TV. Spoke to Rich who's in Exmouth diving with whale sharks (as you do!)
