Wanda and I linked up with some of her friends in town to head out to Manly for a birthday party. Even though it was my birthday, too, I didn’t let anyone know so as to not spoil the day of the man whose birthday was being celebrated. To get there, we took the ferry.
The old customs house by Circular Quay.
At the ferry terminal. Opera on the right, bridge on the left.
There’s the bridge!
The Sydney Opera House.
The Sydney Harbor Bridge.
Part of Australia’s navy.
A bunch of kids learning how to sail. Are those the same boats you guys use, Sondy?
The water police sped past us on the way to somewhere.
A float plane was flying overhead.
Nice twin-hulled boat.
More kids learning how to sail at the mouth of the harbor.
Another ferry going the other direction.
Coming back to Sydney at twilight.
Coming into Sydney.
The bridge and the opera house at night.
Those look like Optimist prams and Lasers (which I used to sail). And it’s not a “twin-hulled boat”, it’s a Catamaran! Have a great time!
One person’s Catamaran is another person’s two boat hulls glued together 🙂
They’re not glued together—they have trusses connecting them! No contact between the hulls is made!
Okay so they’re held together with Popsicle sticks and chewing gum.
