24 Feb: Sydney

The forecast was for rain, so +Jill and I booked an opera house tour that was planned to take place on just such a day. It turned out to not be that bad (the weather) in the end.

We got some nice tidbits of info during the tour and to see the inside was simply fantastic. Now if they would just show something I'd be willing to sit through...

Since it wasn't raining, we strolled over to our lunch destination - Spice I Am. This is really good Thai food that we thoroughly enjoyed. Jill's dish was "hotter" than she typically eats, but she powered through nicely and ate lots of rice.

We had been looking for somewhere to get my haircut on a Sunday on the walk over to lunch. Jill went into a backpackers place after lunch to ask and they gave us the street with the best chance. We found one open quickly with no wait and, $14 later, I had a fairly good chopping to last a few weeks. So glad it is short again.

We packed up in prep for a trip to Ayers Rock and I went to use the hotel gym. I'm losing that Crossfit fitness level and I'm not too happy with what awaits me on my return. Oh boy.

For dinner, we walked to Billy Kwong in Surrey Hills for a nice Chinese meal. The food was delicious and a good way to celebrate the end of the Chinese New Year celebrations.
