It was hot, too hot in fact to go to the beach.

When Sue came home from work we took the train into Town Hall and walked around the Queen Victoria Building.  This building dates back to 1898 it was the original Sydney Market with shops, showrooms and warehouses.  In 1930 it became the Sydney City Council.  It faced near demolition but in 1982 it was given the green light for a full restoration to the original Art Decò style. 

 

A beautiful place to visit and shop.

Then we walked down George Street to the Harbour where we ate at the Sydney Cove Oyster Bar, we had a wonderful fish meal al fresco looking at the Harbour Bridge, ferries and a cruise ship which was just departing. 

A nice big ice cream for desert and back on the train to Suzie’s house.

Yes my tummy is better!!
