Cockle Bay wharf circular water feature
Was about the doze off when got text at 04:00 from Dad - ta 😊
Was awake till 08:00 before deep sleep till 11ish - body clock all out of sync!

Got up and had tea and toast but was raining 😞
Searched out Oz Brekkie at Cafe Molinari on Kent and Liverpool streets round the corner from the Meriton where we stayed at Christmas

Walked round Cockle Bay Wharf and across the Darling Harbour bridge, but was windy and raining - only 15 deg C

Saw some old corvettes in pristine condition.
Headed back to hotel for tea to dodge the rain.

Got ready and went out at 16:00 for a laugh to see what the election of Mr Leather Sydney would be like.
Well! only entrant was a busted couch with a beard!
He was ok though - won an all expenses paid trip to Melbourne for the NSW election - suppose it was worth it!
Got ourselves onto the local community style web site - fame at last - not!
Stuck it out till 20:00 to see if we could win some of the good raffle prizes - guess what? didn't win!

So

Classic Corvettes at Cockle Bay wharf
went round a couple of bars on Oxford St - turned out to be a good night chatting, drinkin and a bit of dancing.
Met one Ozzie born in Blackpool!
Saw a baloon popping contest but the drag queen's accent was so thick couldn't understand a blessed word!
Ended up in a dancey bar with a good drag double act taking off "Are you being served"

Got in at 02:30ish, then couldn't get to sleep - Brian had no trouble - something perhaps to do with the beer...?!
