A relaxing start to the day at home. We left home at 11.30am to catch the ferry from Gladesville to Darling Harbour. We then changed ferries from Darling Harbour back to Cockatoo Island. While waiting for the ferry at Darling Harbour, we caught our first glimpse of the Maritime Museum with the Young Endeavour moored outside.
The wedding on the island was lovely - very relaxed and friendly with great views up and down this beautiful harbour: and great live music!

At 4.30, Monique and I took the kids and caught the ferry into Circular Quay where we caught a bus back home. I lost Tyler's jacket on the bus - I must have dropped it.
We dropped the kids with the neighbour across the road at 7pm and then caught the ferry back to join the"after party". Unfortunately, that ferry went "U.S." (broke down) and they dropped us all of at Cockatoo Island (again) to be picked up by the ferry behind us. They took us back to Circular Quay - not Darling Harbour!! No more ferries back to Darling Harbour at this time of a Saturday night, so we caught a taxi back to The Loft at Darling Harbour.
Finally, we arrived at the "After Party", only to find both Rick and Andrew outside on the footpath having a cigar each.
It was an adventure.Thank God we didn't have all the kids with us.
Some of the sights of the city were just stunning!! The Sydney Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, Luna Park - and all when I didn't have a camera to capture them all. BUGGER!!!!!
We had to leave at 10.30pm to get the final ferry home again at 10.45.
What a great day - one that we'll remember for a looooong time.
