It being Sunday we're having a lazy day today; started off with a Banana Smoothie down in the harbour.
The Mardi Gras last night was exceedingly crowded and hectic, but a good atmosphere. We didn't stay too long before retreating to a bar in a quieter area, and thus escaping some of the rather more scary outfits, some of which didn't seem to involve a lot of material - lots of sequins, shiny pants, and quite a bit of gaffer tape I reckon.
We visited the Maritime Museum this morning and looked around several ships including a decommissioned destroyer - The Vampire, a Submarine, and the HMS Endeavour - Captain Cookes ship. The latter reproduction was very authentic and interesting, and considerably roomier than the submarine we'd just been on.
Of for a spot of shopping and lunch now. Tomorrow we leave Sydney to travel up to Uluru for a night's camping in the bush whilst taking in 'The Rock'.
