We were looking in Kirribilli which has amazing views of the harbour but most of the buildings are old and do not have heat or air conditioning. That just blew my mind, an apartment building with no heat?! We were still considering some of these places thinking, "well, if none of them have it than the weather must be mild enough to not need them." After asking around I don't think that's the case. Everyone just has space heaters and fans everywhere. So, we may have to give up some gorgeous views for some good old American amenities. Looking at some more places today.
Sunday was more of a fun day! We went to the Rocks and had lunch at Loenbrough, a good German place with delicious soft pretzels (almost like home). Abby got a balloon there which no sooner was on her wrist than was floating away into the sky. We stopped and had some good coffee on Nurses' Walk (an old cobblestone alley with small shops) and let Abby walk around.
Then we headed towards home and decided to go to the fish market in Pyrmont. Without a map in hand we set off and found it pretty quickly. It was packed with people getting food and sitting out on the dock eating it. Very cool atmosphere. A pelican flew right over our heads and looked like he could just pick up Abby and take her away. We bought some good looking crabs and had fresh crabs, corn and pasta for dinner...yum!
I would have loved to include some pictures with this post but our internet connection is so slow that it's just not going to happen :)
