It was a very hot Sydney afternoon so we had to be careful not to get sunburnt. We spent the afternoon mixing with Marie and Neil's friends, getting to know them and having lots of cocktails!
Around 5pm we left to have a quick look round Sydney City Centre and to have something to eat, as I remembered a place in one of the food courts that did really nice savoury crepes. I also needed to get some new sunglasses as Graham had broken mine earlier, when he was trying to fix them.
We wandered up George Street and headed to Myer, a big department store, where I managed to find some sunglasses. We then headed down to the food court for some food, before getting the bus all the way back to North Curl Curl, as it's a lot cheaper than getting the bus and ferry.
The evening was spoilt a bit as we had to wait an hour in the freezing cold for the others to come back as Donna had refused to give us the key to the apartment when we left the Opera House, and no one else was in. Needless to say, we were not impressed.
However, we spent a pleasant night chilling with Graham's uncle Mick, whilst the others went over to Dee Why Beach for some food. It was the first time I've spent any quality time with Mick, as he works in the Yemen, and so it was good to get to know him properly.
