The Powerhouse Museum

Its a bit cloudy (”cold” they call it here - easy tell they’ve never been to
Limerick!) so I take in the Aquarium (good but the one in Melbourne seems
better) and the Powerhouse Museum which is a science musem and a very good one
at that. That pretty much takes all day - these places are big!

Later we go out to the airport to pick up a rental car we’ve hired for the
weekend. Roisin’s boyfriend, Jesse, has some friends down in the Snowey
Mountains (5 hours south) and the plan is to go down for a big birthday
barbque. Driving is Sydney is a doddle - these people are such polite drivers
compared to the crap you have to put up with in Dublin (and recently Kilkenny!)
