Joe has a day off!

Didn’t go to work! Looking for somewhere to have breakfast, so walked to Darling Harbour. Kathleen found the water park, a play area for kids of all ages. (K: it’s nifty – you get to direct the water with switches and dams and spin a water wheel. Connected to a really wonderful play area with a great slide and climbing frames.) Walked around the harbour and found a place to have breakfast. Had a largish breakfast.
Then we walked around the tour operators and decided to do any of the tours or the aquarium. So we went across the bridge that crosses the harbour to the National Maritime Museum. Spent most of the day at the Maritime museum looking at the ships and two exhibitions (prehistoric sea monsters and Captain Bligh).
We left the museum via the ferry to Circular Quay and then walked up to The Rocks. Had a wander through the Rocks before crossing Sydney Harbour Bridge. Walked across the bridge pausing to take photos. At the other end we stopped and had dinner at a fire oven place. Really good slow-cooked food. Then we got the train back to Central station and the short walk to the hotel where we soaked our feet.
