Tuesday - Thought I'd go and investigate the Queen Victoria Building which turned out to be an amzing shopping mall. The interior had all the original windows and architecture and the shops were all in keeping with the style. I know I keep using the word amzing but for Dave and Laura who like their labels, this was a shoppers paradise - Dior Versace Ralph Lauren Jiigsaw Gucci and many many more. There were at least 3 floors of tasteful shops and restaurants, which were great for window shopping - certainly not boring - there was even a grand piano on one of the floors.
Off then to Hyde Park to see the convict barracks and the Anzac war memorial. Sydney seems to have a big affiliation to the UK and LOndon - there are loads of monuments of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert - even streets named after them and many more streets with the same names as London. I even went in to a huge woolworths that sold fresh food (veg etc) - more like an Asda than Woolies. It even has a massive internet cafe where I could do the blog and check mail.
Back at the hotel - picked up my laundry from the chinese laundry down the road and picked up fish and chips for tea.
