Sydney - Day Two


Breakfast
Full Buffet Breakfast at Rydges


We woke up and rendevous’d at the breakfast buffet. I asked for a poached egg and they were happy to make me one to order.

After breakfast, we set out on our day's adventure. We walked to the Darling Harbour, then up to Two Rocks, where we stopped for a snack at the Guylians cafe in the marketplace. I don't remember what flavour the creme brulee was though...but it was delicious!

Reinvigorated, we ploughed on until we finally got to the Sydney Harbour Bridge and walked across it to Luna Park. Nothing special there...but we took these funny photos.



Afternoon Snack
Hot Dog


We took the train back across the Sydney Harbour Bridge and made it to the Maritime Museum just in time to board the last tour for the destroyer ship and submarine.

We absolutely love this shot!
I call it..."Noel's Angels"


After our long day, we were famished! We had dinner at the place I got my ramen from last night.

Ajisen Ramen - Miso Ramen


We went back to the hotel and had a few drinks, then I headed out on my own to find some live music. After trying a few bars, I went to the Three Wise Monkeys where they had a live cover band upstairs. I stayed there for a few hours before deciding to call it a night and headed back to the hotel to draw myself a bath to soothe my muscles after today's trekking around Sydney.
