Sunny Sydney
















Yesterday was spent pigging out on fresh seafood at the Fish Market, where the lobsters and prawns looked like mutants because of their size. We had those plus octopus, dory, salmon and tuna, and oysters Kilpatrick. The Fish Market is Australia's version of our dampa, where the day's fresh catch is brought in by fishing boats from the harbor. It also is turo-turo style: you point to your seafood of choice and give them cooking instructions. We figured after the first time we went there that fresh is best so we kept cooking to a bare minimum, if not at all.

With bulging bellies, we took a leisurely walk to Darling Harbor and took in some street performances and gelato. We ended that wonderful, relaxed, sunny afternoon with cocktails as we watched boats cruise along.

After a quick shower and change at home, we went clubbing until 3 am. After last night's revelry, only half my brain is functioning, so my apologies for the short post; more tomorrow. Cheers!
