I'm really tired because I just got back from a long walk around Sydney with Helen (when two RTW trips collide...) I took her to all the best pie shops, and the red light district where my old hostel was and finally to Starbucks. We got Whippy ice cream under the bridge (mine was dipped in chocolate which set, it was quite amazing) and went to that craft market. Aside from the eternally crappy weather it was an enjoyable day. It was great hearing about Helen's tour (what goes on tour should stay on tour!!)

I can't remember exact days, but before today me and Aaron have done things such as visit the fish market and Darling Harbour. The fish market was really good because everything's so fresh and tasty - and not too expensive. I think we'll be going back. I had barramundi (I think that's how you spell it!) and rice - Aaron had a combo thing involving fish pieces, chips, prawn and callamari. It was all very good.

Darling Harbour's really pretty (as it should be with a name like that). There are some decent bars around one side, and the Maritime Museum on the other. The museum's free, and though I wasn't as captivated as Aaron was by everything it was interesting to look around. Those Aussies are very proud of their swimming and surfing achievements! There is also a 'wall of friendship' outside featuring the people who came over here from overseas. There are a few family connections I printed out, though they're probably nothing to do with us really, it's nice to see your family name somewhere important
