Watson bay

Another trip out today 15th June. I thought I would go to Watson bay today as Nat had told me about it yesterday and sounded nice. Also I got a multi pass ticket which includes bus, train and ferry. So I thought I might as well get my money's worth and have a ride on the ferry. First I went to the Ugg shop to try on my boots again as couldn't decide between two. Still wasn't sure after trying on so decided to go for ferry ride first then buy.
I got ferry from Circular Quay to Watson Bay, it had two stops before reaching my place so probably took about 20mins. On the ferry trip got lovely views off the bridge and opera house. Think will be the only time can get a picture of both of them together when on the ferry.
Once at Watson Bay had a look round is Australia's oldest fishing village founded in 1788. It had little fishing boats on the beach in different colours. Their is two Doyles fishermans places to eat take-away but can still sit in or restaurant. I decided to eat in take-away as was a queue for restaurant and thought nicer when on own. I had a combo where you got 6 calamari, fish and chips with plum sauce was very nice. Only fault is that I probably would of preferred tomato sauce to plum. Then I walked to top of hill as sometimes if you lucky another you may see a whale. It wasn't to be my lucky day as I didn't see a whale but when talking to some people whilst waiting for ferry their had seen one. Their also thought my accent was nice.
Once back in city didn't have time to buy uggs so quickly popped and said will come back tomorrow said that was fine. Then it was back to Rhodes as viewing an apartment tonight. Saw the apartment was very nice had double bed with ensuite, furnished and own courtyard. The person sharing with seemed nice a lad 25years. He showed me round place had 2 pools one heated, small gym, sauna and near park so good for running. Will have a think but do like and quite reasonable price $250 a week. Only thing is not sure if I want to live with a lad and is the first one seen.
