38. Fish Market & Manly Beach

Two other sites that we visited around the outer edges of Sydney were the Darling Harbour Fish Market, and Manly Beach.

We weren't sure what to expect at the fish market - would it be a show, like in Seattle? Not quite, but it was huge, crowded, and had lots of delicious looking prepared delicacies. I grabbed a sashimi sampler platter with salmon, octopus, tuna, & scallop, while Mile grabbed a skewer of shrimp & scallops. We tried eating outside, but an aerial attack by the birds sent us scurrying back inside. Food was yummy & fun! (I'll pass in the octopus next time - way too chewy).

Our other destination outside the city was Manly Beach, probably the second most well-known beach after Bondi. We took the ferry to the beach and the bus to a lookout point where we were told others had spotted whales! You - they were there! Another successful animal (mammal) sighting!Leggi altro
