Sydney – Wedding & a New (wet) Suit

Just a quick trip to Sydney For a couple of days to attend the Wedding of Erica & Robin.



Great spot for a wedding – Italian Village, The Rocks





The whole city seemed to be celebrating!



It was a very romantic evening complete with some unexpected fireworks over the opera house to add a finishing touch.

We had arrived a day early so as not to get caught up with plane issues and to do a bit of big city stuff, like, shopping.

Jayne had prearranged to have a wetsuit held in the Sydney City Ripcurl store only to find the size was too big (size 8) & no size 6 in the store. 

A few phone calls & a ferry ride to Manly & a size 6 is found & it fits. 



Snug as a Bug in a Rug

Evidently a size 6 in 2015 is equivalent to a size 10 in 1980…

In all we had a great day out & about in Manly with a surprisingly good Fish’N’Chips

There was even some surf at Manly beach but we resisted the urge to christen the wetsuit.

The trip over to Manly & back on the ferry stirred some memories of our few years living there back in the late 80s.

That was a busy fun time for us & we both felt that Manly still had that same comfortable casual cafe style feel to it now as it had back then. Although these days it’s a little bit busier.



Inside the Outside – Westin Hotel



Two nights at the Westin Hotel in the middle of Sydney CBD while very lush is still not a patch on wandering about the countryside.

Back at the airport now having breaky in the Qantas Club & looking forward to getting back to the Van ExtraOrdinaire.
