My last day off, of 4 days and has flown by Debbie off today aswell so decided to go to Botanical Gardens since never went yesterday. Monday 11th March got up 9ish to go for run couldn't get motivated at first but eventually went for run at 10ish and did 2.69 miles round the lake where we went yesterday. Then me and Debbie headed into the city to go have a nice wander round the Royal Botanical Gardens.The Botanic Gardens is situated overlooking Farm Cove, and is east of the Sydney Opera House, Circular Quay and Macquarie Street. The gardens is 30 hectares in area, and is bordered by: the Cahill Expressway to the south and west, Art Gallery road to the east, and Sydney Harbour to the north. The Botanical Gardens are beautiful with so many different areas to see, so big couldn't get round in one day. The pond area was lovely and didn't even realise that their was a shop and cafe in the gardens. Was great to get some fresh air away from the noisy city and would be nice to enjoy with a picnic, maybe next time. It was then to meet Nat at Opera House at 2ish and straight to food but was nothing we fancied round Circular Quay so ended up at Bar 100 off George St at the Rocks. Bar 100 is a heritage listed Mariners Church (est.1856)it is now a stylish multi-level venue that offers various event spaces, bar and dining options. Set over four levels, this beautifully designed venue is the perfect mix of old and new, food was ok just had a light bite but had a nice cocktail menu, will definitely have to try sometime. Then it was back to Botanical Gardens where we just chilled on the grass for abit since a nice day. It was then time to head back home as needed to be back home for 6.30 as Bianca cooking tea tonight. The train was so busy but luckily we made it back in time for tea and Jen here for tea aswell, Bianca did pasta with salmon, chives and cream very nice but Debbie didn't want any. I also had 2 parcels one was my old work shoes from mum and the other my new heart fob watch. Then just chilled the rest of the night but Nat had mentioned about advertising place on Gumtree so did that as free.
