There are lots of secluded bays in Sydney harbour and today we were going to visit all of them. First stop was Rose bay, which was full of tennis playing mums enjoying the good weather and not much else. 04 - Funny sign in Rose Bay

Still if we were living there I wouldn't complain! Back on the ferry again to Double Bay, which had exactly what Julesy was looking for...The Chocolate Shop. 05 - Oh dear!!

The decisions she had to make in there were some of the hardest faced all trip...chocolate brownie doused in chocolate sauce with strawberries, or chocolate melting pot, or just melted chocolate and strawberries. Eventually she went for the brownies, a good choice, a very good choice. 06 - The brownie!!

Having to walk quickly to the ferry terminal full of chocolate wasn't so good...or as Gunther from the Simpsons would say, "don't make me run, I'm so full of chocolate!!"

After a quick stop at Garden Island we hopped on a ferry out to Watson's bay to see South Head and the Gap. What we were planning on seeing was a load of old men baring it all on one of the beaches there. The beach was full of them; just old men. The view though back to the city were pretty amazing and thankfully all thoughts of old naked men passed quickly. 10 - Scenic Shot

Our final port of call was Balmoral Beach, which was a little tricky to get to but once there it was worth it. The beach was really nice and even more importantly there was an amazing fish and chip shop! Just what we needed after a hard day sightseeing! 19 - Balmoral Beach
