Kate leaving to UK

Well Kate's last day in Sydney today Friday 20th July. So I had said since it was my day off I would help her with suitcases on train. Luckily for us Hisako was on a late so gave us a lift to train station. Was quite entertaining trying to get luggage in her jeep as wouldn't fit through door so had to unzip back. Once at train station was fairly easy got train to central then Kate caught train to airport was a direct train. Which at least was one good thing and she only had 3stops before hers. Was nice meeting Kate and definitely made my first few weeks more bearable.
After leaving Kate I got train to circular quay and had a wander round. Went to Opera House to see if anything interesting on. Just for Laughs is touring in October so that would be good to see. Then I went to French connection shop at the quays and bought a top, cardigan and dress all in sale. Was also tempted to but a star jumper but wasn't sure on the shoulder pads.
Then I went to meet Leigh at the Queen Victoria Building (QVB) which was about 2ish for afternoon tea. Went to first place and unfortunately had sold out of scones. So then found another place 'Cellinis' and ordered scones. Was very nice but I was expecting fruit scones like would get in England. But their were more like brioche with jam and cream. I also didn't realise that the QVB had 2 marvellous hanging clocks. Which makes the QVB a magnificent historical landmark and shopping paradise. The Royal clock resembles balmoral castle and is the worlds largest animated turret click. Whilst the Great Australia clock depicts 33 scenes from australia's history.
I then went to price up flights and it was what I was expecting between $1500 and $2000. Didn't book as want to have a think and look on Emirates website to see what offers there have. As I know I like Emirates do might aswell pay abit extra for what I like and know us good.
