Sydney 4

We started off with a run together down to Mrs McQuarrie's Chair then back through the parks. A bit of rain in the air. This was probably my first run for about a year, so well done Danielle for dragging me out. I enjoyed it.
We took a taxi to the terminal zone of the Airport with an amusing and somewhat worrying cabbie, "Bali, that's where I like to go. You're King there, you can do what you want". He took us to the depot where we picked up our campervan for our first ever campervan trip. The magnitude of our adventure was put in perspective somewhat by the Israeli family in front of us: they were hiring a van for four months and driving to Adelaide, Alice Springs, Darwen then back down the east coast. The family of two parents and three boys under 10 did not look like they would fit in the van for one day, let alone 120. We wish them well.
Took us a while to work everything out, but I think we are getting there. Before sleeping in the van we had one last AirB&B treat in the Blue Mountains. A place called Frog Hollow which had a frog chorus at night and kookarburra and cockatoo in the morning.
Walking the Sydney Harbour Bridge - not something we fancied doing.
