Almost time for some farming

So, yesterday in Sydney was not the most ideal day. We set out early to go to Manly, which is a beach north of Sydney that is supposed to be quite beautiful. But instead of making our ferry, we looked in our guidebook to see that most stores are closed on Sunday. I still needed work boots, so we ended up back in the retail district shopping. And we hate shopping. And we have bad luck shopping. Bad combination. Short story is our day sucked and we never made it to the beach. But that's quite alright, because we got back to our hostel, bought a cheap bottle of wine and some cheese and made an evening for ourselves on the spectacular roof deck. Could you imagine being on a roof deck in winter in Boston? You'd freeze to death, but here you just shiver a little. So, today we're off to the beach, and we're determined to catch the 8:45 ferry.
