Good Morning readers. First of all on my last 2 posts, the month should be February and not January .(Thank you for pointing this out Cynthia)
This morning we booked a short trip to Manly Beach. The bus took us through a variety of North Sydney suburbs before arriving at Manly. The beach is stunning. Nice large waves were rolling in from the Atlantic ocean. This was to the delight of the numerous surfers in the water. We strolled the beach and gazed at the numerous stores and cafe’s lining the boulevard and streets. We were given an hour to spend here. On the way back to Downtown Sydney we stopped at a few more viewpoints for pictures. We arrived back at the ship at 12:30.
After we departed our tour bus we went immediately into town for lunch and a cold beer. We were very lucky with the weather, as the original forecast had called for rain on both days in Sydney. Today it was exactly sunny and 26 deg C. After lunch we did some shopping in a neighborhood called the Rock. Around 4:00 we headed back to the ship.
At 5:30 we headed towards the back deck for an Complimentary wine and cheese event to welcome our new +/- 450 new passengers which boarded the ship here in Sydney. They replaced the 500 gasts who had departed the ship here in Sydney. At around 6;00 the ship started to move on to our next location.
Sydney is truly one of the nicest Cities to visit. It doesn’t matter how often you’ve been there, every time it awe’s you.
Cheers
Cor and Carol
