Sunday started with breakfast in the "Queen Victoria Building", Sydney's High-end shopping center (that now is decorated with a trashy plastic Christmas tree full of Swarowski crystals). Here we even found the "Old Vienna Coffee House", in fact, it does not have much more in common with a traditional Vienna coffee house than the name. Then we took the ferry to the famous ...

... to see the harbour and the Opera House as well as the Sydney skyline, well recommended! We met Joanne's friend Lummo there for a chat about life over here, Manly seemed a very cool suburb too! At the night we met Liz and her friends up at the top of the Sky Tower for a cocktail (a beer for me!) and 360 degree views of the city, was cool!

So after a very yummy dinner a bottle of wine and four rum and cokes i was feeling a bit better so we went to World Bar in Kings Cross where we bumped into one half of the American couple Kat who was slaughtered.

We worked our way down the coast to Soldiers Point at Port Stephens and had another great week of fishing and playing tennis at the club opposite the park.
