Our First Trip to Sydney







We finally did it. On Monday March 10th we took the ferry into Sydney and enjoyed the day with three other Senior Couples in our Mission. We had a beautiful day. We left on the ferry for Sydney at about 9:10 am and arrived an hour later. The city was beautiful as we arrived in Circular Quay which they pronounce Key. This is the main train and ferry station. We took another ferry to Manley Island and had a really nice dinner there. Did I say, it was a lovely day? As we went to the train we passed an Aboriginal man playing a didgery-doo. What a great sound that odd instrument makes. Then we went to the Queen Victoria Building. It is like a huge shopping mall but is beautiful inside. As you might imagine we will have to return to see more of this beautiful city. We are still enjoying being on a mission and meeting wonderful people. We have already been away from home for six months. The time is flying by.
