Wednesday
We got the overnight greyhound from Melbourne which took 13 hours and it was torture - Fuller i forgot the goon policy! We arrived in Sydney at 8am and made our way to Base hostel on Kent St. We couldn't checkin until 10am so we flaked outr on the couches till then. Spent the rest of the day recovering from exhaustion. That night we met up with Tamlyn from the Whitsundays tour and we went to a table quiz in Kiribilli notrth of the Harbour bridge. That too was good fun.
Thursday
Back on form again we headed for a day trip to the Blue mountains, all the tours were booked up so we decided to do it by ourselves and get the train there.
On our way we rang Laura to catch up , thanks McEneaney for the tips on the tea and scones shop in Leura - we found it and enjoyed!
The blue mountains trip was really mice and there are great views. I'll attach photos soon.
That night we returned to Sydney and were too shattered to do anything.
Friday
We got up warly and headed for Palm beach where they shoot Home and Away. We saw the surf club and the beach but they were not casting at that time so no sign of any of the actors. We were in a rush back to Sydney though as the bus service is a bit like Dublin Bus - not really on time and we were to meet Sarah's cousin Rebecca at 5pm in North Sydney (and McGarrigle had to wash the hair etc. etc.) Anyhow we made it to north Sydney with a minute to spare and after a few moments scanning the train station found Rebecca who we had no idea what she looked like before meeting her but she was looking out for two pasty Irish people!
We went for dinner in a lovely Asian restaurant across ther road from her apartment which is also really nice and then called into one of the locals in the area. We had a great night but it had to be cut short due to us having to get an early flight to Perth and Rebecca being a bit under the weather from the night before.
