We were celebrating our 33rd wedding anniversary on the 11/11/11 (Don't you love those numbers! - it wasn't planned back in '78 - just a lovely numerological coincidence!) and then M.'s Birthday on the 16th. What better excuse to spend 6 nights in fair Sydney Town down at the best ever location in the Rocks!
What can I say, we hadn't visited there in 25 years and it's still an awesome city.....
The Icon ;) Covered in self cleaning tiles no less! |
The other icon complete with a most cooperative Seagull |
Icon 2 viewed from inside Icon 1 |
Icon 1 viewed from Icon 2 - it was high - I felt brave! |
The Heights: Didn't climb over but did walk across the bridge! |
The Gaudy: No, I don't mean Murray ! |
The Quirky - No washing just birdcages! |
The Arty- Recreation of the original laneway. |
The Old Buildings - They treasure them and don't flatten them. |
The Oldest Pub - one of many we visited :) |
The Atmosphere: Friday night markets at The Rocks. |
The Unusual: A Lovely pressed metal construction.....Umm... a urinal! |

I learned to cast at The Rocks every Saturday morning for a year as a 17 year old...Wished I appreciated the company I was in then. Love the photos, much nicer than a vacuum cleaner. (Sometimes I wonder..."Is there anybody out there" so thanks for your comments)
thanks Suzanne. wow the rocks would be such an inspiring place for learning. We loved the rocks area- so much to see and loved the history of the place. would definately stay there again - it was so central to everything.
