So up early to pack up and check out before travelling back to circular quay to get a ferry. The walk was uneventful, the train ride no surprises and I had a short wait for the ferry. It took me a few minutes to get my head round how they worked but it wasn’t a… Continue reading Sydney – 18th April

I had a lazy morning – I needed lots of rest! I then decided to find out how long it would take me to get to circular quay. It was a twenty minute walk to the train station, I was feeling quite okay and my knee was ok. The weather was fine when I set… Continue reading Sydney – 17th April

So this morning I managed to sleep in late and then spent the whole morning reading. I decided to have a rest day to sort my knee out!

Woke up this morning at 6:18 way earlier than my alarm and tried very hard to go back to sleep. Unfortunately, my bladder had other ideas and I was forced to get up and go to the loo!
