35th Wedding Anniversary

3 hours down the freeway to Sydney. Destination, Pier One -- overlooking Sydney Harbour. Hickson's Point, not far from the Old Coat Hanger. Time to unpack later. Downstairs for a refreshing wine before dinner. The lounge area welcomed the afternoon sea breeze as did we. The traffic had added an hour to our journey so respite was sought. The Sydney Theatre Company's restaurant was where we chose to dine for our first night. Service and menu did not disappoint. Having arrived just after first curtain the restaurant was tranquil, with only a few patrons not taking in the show. We were to play the role of tourists for the next 48 hours. Night became morning. Sun shone and the lens captured the sights. In search of breakfast we walked under the bridge to Circular Quay. We passed a tall ship and a cruise liner on our way. Breakfast taken. Next stop, the markets at The Rocks. Too early, many stall holders were still in the throws of setting up their wares.
