Darling Harbour lunch and Pyrmont scenes : December 5 2024

A different day lining up with lunch in the city with former colleagues of my wife. Had in my mind to do the train - bike thing to get there. Did not work out that way. Checked out some different ideas - train and light rail

Train to Central Station and then walk around to light rail

Always got an eye open for photo chances - sandstone corner of Central Station

Followed Google directions - took me to the wrong place - L2 into Circular Quay

Found the right line into Pyrmont - train leaving

Photo across to Pyrmont Park - never knew this place existed - then my wife got a job here. Once a year the group lunch is in a French restaurant close by

Pre-lunch and post-lunch drinks in this pub.

Building site in front of the restaurant flying CFMEU flags. A union site with a union much in the news - corrupt as the worst

Lunch was very good and only $45 for 3 courses. Limited menu but with good choices

Repaired to PBH after lunch - photos from the rooftop bar

W hotel across Darling Harbour

City views

Views down to Barangaroo

Walked up the hill to a bar for farewell drinks for one of my wife's colleagues. A few more places I have not visited

Old terraced houses

View down the terraces to Sky Tower in the city

Zoomed in view - summer green in the trees

Drunks session was fun - first time meeting my wife's colleagues. I see why she likes her project - nice people

Christmas decorations on the Anzac memorial

Old bank building - 1 Union Street

Trains home were a pain with on and off industrial action killing one train service. Took a while to get home

Cooked up a quick snack dinner to work away the booze. Not normal to have three events loaded onto this lunch

And then the Actifit - Fitbit thing struck again - driving me nuts losing steps because an integration is not working. And losing an hour making a work around
