A Fun Day in Sydney

Last night, we enjoyed an Italian dinner at a small place in Sydney. After that, we were so tired, we came back to the hotel and just watched tv and went to sleep so we could be ready for Saturday's adventure.
Saturday, we started our day with a great breakfast at a restaurant in the hotel. We then hit the town running! We went to Darling Harbor and took at 2 hour whale watching cruise. We did see several pods of whales which is so amazing to witness! It really is one of my favorite things. We were able to see lots of Sydney from the boat that we couldn't see from land. The cliffs were amazing! We also saw the Sydney bridge and Sydney Opera House from the water. It was absolutely amazing! We also saw lots of sailboats on the ocean which was a beautiful site.
After the cruise, we went to lunch at the Sydney Fish Market. I had pizza and Chris enjoyed lobster Morney. The market was a neat thing to see.
We then walked to a market place and just looked around. After that, we returned to our hotel and rested before going to dinner. We did a LOT of walking today!

It was windy and cold on the boat!

We were glad to talk to them! Loved hearing their sweet voices! Glad they are being good. The weather here is about 60. It's windy some, but we have lightweight jackets and are fine. The boat ride was the coldest we've been in Sydney. It's been sunny each day.
