We made it to Sydney, and so for now you can only see the view from where we’re staying. We’re still not in a fit state to be photographed. Cremont Point is clearly one of the nicer areas of Sydney, and is also a big nature reserve. I hesitate to say to you in the UK that it’s too hot, but it was this morning. I’m guessing in the high 80s.
You may be able to see greying skies in the photo – it’s been blue sky until a few minutes ago and they tell us that a thunderstorm is on its way.
And finally, we’ll see if pride comes before a fall, especially for me this evening. Eileen is feeling a bit rough after the journey, whereas I seem fine, so no jet lag for me (perhaps).

First question – how hard can it be to take a selfie, especially if you put the Sydney Opera House in the background? Clearly more training required – you should see the other attempts!
We’re getting used to the idea of Sydney, especially starting from where we are staying. We get a ferry over the bay to the Opera House which is the main connection to everywhere. Today we took a trip to Manly, one of the main beaches …
… and we’re met by one of their Water Dragons. Had a walk, lunch on the beach, a swim and all the other things you expect to do in December.
Then took a ferry to nowhere in particular, joining all the commuters on their way home. Another picture of the Opera House just for good measure – we did wonder how long it takes Sydnodians(?) to get used to their daily commute – it’s amazing.
And to finish – let’s try a selfie again outside our flat. Still needs more work on perfecting the art …..
