Round trip to Manly

---

After a tasty bearkfast of fruit plus Graeme's special scrambled egg and bacon, we got organised for a trip to Manly. Wendy drove us to nearby Gordon train station, where we caught a smart double decker train into Wynyard Station. We had a short walk througt the city, past Graeme's offie, to Circular Quay to catch the fast ferry to Manly. Once again we had a sunshiny day to view the Harbour Bridge and Opera House. We could see brave people walking over the top of the bridge! Georges Head

As it was such a beautiful day in Manly, so many other people were there too. We wandered down to Shelly Beach, which was a little quieter, but all the restaurants were extremely busy. We decided to head home to St Ives to relax by the pool. Our clever niece, Wendy, ordered our burgers and chips as we drove. The order was collected en route! We had a relaxing more peaceful, latish lunch by the pool. Graeme and the family swam, but both Alan and Elaine thought they would sink after our lunch.

There was some compelling World Rugby to watch on TV. Well done on wins for both Wales and South Africa.

Our last sleep in Australia as we leave to return to UK tomorrow.
