Thursday 21st February 2019

A bit of a cloudy day again today. Since it is not the sort of day for Manly Beach, maybe it would be the kind of day suitable for Sydney. With this in mind we boarded the 180 bus on Sydney Rd bound for Wynyards. We had decided that our destination should first be Circular Quays for lunch then under the Bridge to the National Trust Centre.

The P&O ship Arcadia was in Circular Quays and we sat at the end of the Quay chobbling our ham rolls viewing her and the shipping activity across Sydney Cove. It would seem that the Arcadia should have sailed for Brisbane yesterday. We became aware of a further 4 cruise ships hovering in and around Sydney Harbour, far more than would usually be in Port. The reason for this we found out was the approaching Cyclone Oma now just off the coast at Brisbane and causing upset to our climate here too. Weather watchers are keeping a close eye on this because it is uncertain where it will hit land; it is the biggest in 30 years apparently and it could hit Brisbane shortly. Remarkably, warnings need to be made to surfers and swimmers to keep out of the sea! Because of this, cruise ships are keeping out of its way. Ultimately, Arcadia needs to be in Japan in a couple of weeks. All this might explain why there appeared to be a lot of tourists milling around in the vicinity of the Quay.

Lunch now settling nicely within our digestive system, we headed off for the National Trust Centre just next to the Bridge. We were not sure what sort of property this was to be, but armed with our Scottish National Trust membership cards we boldly went. What materialised was yet another piece of the jigsaw that made up the Destination Sydney art exhibition of which we saw one bit of at the Manly Gallery yesterday. Our membership enabled entry at a fraction of the usual cost and in we went. The artists on show were: Jeffrey Smart, Nicholas Harding and Wendy Sharpe. Very enjoyable, especially a short film, introduced by Clive James, about the life and works of Jeffrey Smart.

After a flat white we were considering returning home but happened to notice what was next door; the Sydney Observatory, built 1858 on the site of a former defence Fort. and Australia's oldest. Just like the Greenwich version, it has a ball on the turret which falls at 13.00 each day, originally for the purpose of giving all and sundry once a day the correct time. At one time a cannon was fired at the same time. It is intriguing that astronomers through the years having been viewing the constellations of the Southern hemisphere, so what little knowledge one has of great and little bear, it means nothing here. Good visit, and it was free.

Well we were definitely going to head back now but, hey wait a minute, why not walk across the Bridge whilst we are in the neighbourhood. So off we went and here are the facts for anyone remotely interested: completed 1932, 1149m in length, 134m high, 8 Road lanes and 2 rail tracks wide. A fantastic achievement to build but sadly 16 died in its construction. Ugly, maybe, stunning - yes. It's a fair old plod there and back, but worth every step for the views alone.

Having completed our round trip, we at last set out for home again in Balgowlah on the crowded, rush hour carrying E71 bus.
