the car is in service

Friday 11 November


The car is in for service and we took the train to the city.


We started the day with a coffee and banana
bread at the Barracks.
then we went to see the DJ Christmas windows,
and had a look for presents.
We did not buy anything as we have NO CLUES


We walk across the Pyrmond Bridge to
Darling Harbord to look at the shops


After looking at all the shops and not buying a
single thing we walk back to the other side
and had lunch.


we had lunch looking at this view.
It was nice relaxing and looking at the
passers by.


Then it was time to walk back to the train station


We had another look in the QVB shops







And the Old Queen Victoria

the street and cars reflexions.
