Sorting Out

Just a couple of days left in Sydney (& Australia) now, so it's been time to sort out matters administrative - laundry, money, shopping, packing etc. prior to Hong Kong.

Aside from that, we've not done much the last couple of days -- we ventured out to Bondi Beach for a few hours yesterday -- nice to get a tick on the form (and a couple of photos of lovely ladies), but to be honest it's pretty underwhelming. We have better beaches with far superior surroundings within a few miles of home. We're going to check out the beach at Manly on Thursday - hopefully that'll be a bit more inspiring!

Hoopy took himself off for a few hours this morning to go up the Sydney Tower (the second highest in the Southern Hemisphere, apparently) whilst I took the opportunity to catnap as I did not sleep well last night for some reason.

Tonight sees our last cricket - the Twenty20 international. Could we possibly get to see England win a game on this tour? We'll see.

Tomorrow we're off on another blue-rinse bus tour, this time visiting the blue mountains and a few other places en route. Our last planned activity is the harbour bridge climb on Thursday evening, after which I suspect we'll down a few beers and crash as Friday we're up, out, in the air and meeting Ali in Hong Kong.
