People in Sydney love seafood, we are not that keen in fish, but we thought it could be really fun to go and visit the local fish market. Sydney fish market is one of the largest in the world, but the they do not only sell for big customers, there are one section dedicated for ordinary people as well. Fish market is for me accosiated with smelly fish, I.ve been told that fresh fish does not stink. So I guess these all fish was fresh because the place was really fresh. A lot of crabs, octopus and other different fish, actually really interesting to see the fishes that we had earlier tried out at some restaurant. We also passed a sushi restaurant, we are no of sushi, but here it felt like the right place to try once again. For 6AUS we got a small portion, and wow, this sushi was really good. Seems that we need to take our words back.
After the sushi, we went to Paddington market. A market for local artists and hand crafters. This market is bigger that the Rocks market and does not have so much tourist stuff. Great place if you like markets, a highlite from the market was a guy selling masks. Incredible great, fun mask for halloween party.
In the late afternoon we drove out top "the Gap", the entrance port to Sydney by sea. Spectacular views, definetely worth the drive.
