Rocks, Watson bay and babysit

Didn't sleep the best heard Ellie steering then at 4.30 she one so got her into bed with and fell asleep 5 and woke up 7.30. Think Sharon and Ben got up 8ish unfortunately today doing track work which meant have to catch bus from Rhodes to Strathfield. So caught bus at 10.22 but the bus wasn't really best for pushchairs and nobody gave up baby seats for up. Then half way into journey had to take pushchair down as people couldn't get past us as taking up most of the aisle. Once at Strathfield wasn't much better as lift broken but made train to circular quay with 5 minutes to spare. Somehow Ellie fell asleep 11ish so once at Circular Quay went for walk round the Rocks market but was nothing we wanted, not even any banana bread. Ellie only ended up having 45 minutes once wake we got ferry at 12.15 to Watson Bay which took about 30 minutes. Watson Bay is a harbourside on the eastern suburb of Sydney and is an ideal place to experience the magnificent Sydney Harbour. Once arrive at Watson Bay ferry wharf it is good to explore by foot which was once a fishermans village. Aim was to go to the popular Doyles cafe for lunch but unfortunately Sharon decided didn't want since Ben doesn't like fish. At this point Ellie decided to have a walk so was going to look in the cafe to see what food did but Ellie decided to go other direction. So instead just went for ice-cream from gelatissimo then walk to the Gap, an infamous ocean cliff sadly known in former yeas for suicides. But we decided against doing the cliff walk but I just like to go to Watson bay to relax and take in the beautiful scenery. Ended up getting the ferry back at 2ish and was straight to the Rocks to have some lunch. Went to burger joint a new burger place which has just opened at back of observer hotel and had a lamb burger was very good definitely go again. Got train back to Strathfield and had to wait nearly 30 minutes for bus to arrive but luckily was pushchair space this time. Once back me and Sharon went to Rhodes to get a few things and when back Ellie was still awake. Sharon and Ben go out 6ish to go watch an AFL game at Olympic park so me and Ellie home alone. Had Zaid a 21year student view place at 6.30 who seemed nice and was very keen to move in. Ellie didn't end up drinking all off her milk and eventually went to sleep 8ish but cried a little at first. I then watched 'bedtime stories' with wine and 'Nanny McPhee' which think may off nodded off a little whilst watching. Sharon and Ben got in 11ish and seemed to enjoy the game but not sure if understood ruled and bed 12ish.
