Australia!

On the road again! This time Australia to see old quarters and friends!
Karin and I stayed in a B&B in the Rocks in Sydney. It was great to be in the middle of the city and close to everything! We've been walking in the Botanical Gardens. Took the walk between Bronte beach and Bondi beach on Sunday. They had a exhibition going on, Sculptures by the sea. Very nice, despite some showers! We've had a coffee in Darling harbour and I then went to the Fishmarket and had some oysters. They were great! We also took a walk across the Sydney harbour bridge, walked along the water in Lavender bay and went to look at my old house and had a coffe in McMahons Point. Nice to see the old quarters! We had a glass of wine in the Opera Bar. What a nice place! And dinner in the Rocks. It was one of the best pizzas I've ever had! Something to come back for! I also had a strole at the market in the Rocks and picked up a very nice silver ring. So we've managed to do a lot in only two days!
So Monday we headed for Hamilton Island. It is a great island in the middle of Whitsunday Islands! We're staying with Glenn Bourke in his villa. It is enormous with a deck and pool! Unfortunately it's been raining ever since we came, but hopefully it clears up in the next couple of days. I've bought three new books, Marian Keyes latest, Janet Evanovich latest and another one. So at least I have something to do!
We have rented a buggy for a couple of days. It's the way to get around the island! They are everywhere! We have gone on a little tour around the island so we have seen what's around.
We also took a sailing trip, Adrenaline Rush. A 36 foot catamaran where you hang in a trapets, four at a time. Unfortunately there was very little wind... So hopefully we will go again later in the week, when the wind is better!
