We woke up to rain this morning so that is the main reason we did the city hop on hop off bus journey.
It was interesting starting from Circular Quay then right through the city. We were downstairs in the bus so no pics were possible.
Then the bus broke down. The front doors kept opening stopping the driver from driving. Conveniently we were round the corner from the Bondi Beach bus so we (just) caught it.
Bondi is not so attractive in the rain. So we stayed on the bus and decided to visit the excellent museum.
The Australian Museum in Sydney was well worth the visitors fee. They display a wide variety of historical items, but we were well impressed by the skeleton hall and the mineral dsplays.
From there we got back on the bus to Central station and switched back to the City tour bus, and stayed on it until we got to Darling Harbour.
There it started to rain quite heavily again so we visited the shops and had yet another fresh orange drink.
We got on the ferry back to Circular Quay and we are now waiting for another thunderstorm to pass whilst we enjoy more slimming food.
So now it will be running through the rain back to our excellent hotel in time to do our packing ahead of starting our trip to Perth for the next phase of my sabbatical.
