Today didn't start early (hurrah!). I managed a little bit of a sleep in before my 11am check out. Leaving my main bag in the hotel I set out for the aquarium, stopping off at the Dim Sum kitchen next door for breakfast. I've no idea what some of the things I was eating were but they were quite tasty!
The aquarium is one of the biggest of the world (according to the little pocket guide book Liz lent me). Quite a few sharks and loads of other local varieties of fish.
The dugongs were quite cute and the biggest shark they had was a grey nurse shark. These only ever eat fish but have been killed over the years as potential man eaters.
After lunch I went to the arranged place to be met by Rod and taken out to Wiseman's Ferry where Gary and his family live. Gary and Rod were the two Aussie guys I had met in Peru. His house is on an elevated position looking out over the Hawkesbury, with a veranda running along the side. We saw kookaburras come down and land on the hand rail right in front of us!
Dinner was cooked on a BBQ with several accompanying beers. The beer drinking continued on late into the night, only to be broken by a small amount of Wii bowling.
