    Mon 26th March - Lost Anniversary & more

    March 26, 2018 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 17 °C

    The day we both forgot our Anniversary (not the first time) was the day we decided to go south of the bridge on the river to Parramatta.
    A full day that saw us going up the Paramatta river as far as any proper boat could go. Only canoes and small row boats could have gone further. We stopped for a drink and a sharing platter at the quayside bar.

    On the way to Parammatta we stopped for a couple of hours at Cockatoo Island. Where we saw some interesting art, one installation for a large part based around mill workers from Pendle in Lancashire.

    After all of this we met Suzie at Circular Quay and returned to Manly where we went to The Skiff Club for 10$ Steak night. It was very busy but worth the wait. It was here we became aware it was our 35th wedding anniversary after a text from Jenny back in the UK. And so celebrated the occasion with a bottle of Chandon and two strangers we had offered to share our table due to The Skiff Club being busy.
    A very pleasant and full day that ended by walking off some of the food and drink escorting Suzie back to Smith St.
