Sydney / Canberra / Central Coast - June / July 2017

Took Callum back to Sydney for part of his school holidays. Here he is, having Teh Tarik at HKIA...

Flew Tuesday on Cathay which was fine. Slept a bit. Alex picked us up from Pymble. Met my new car...

Wednesday we drove to Canberra to see my mother. The retirement village is a nice place, as far as those places go. We went to dinner at the Ainslie Club. Stayed at the Hutchies. Played the tourist and went to the Portrait Gallery and Parliament House.

Saw Neryl again and headed back to Sydney. Stupidly I missed the exit and ended up driving though Sydney in peak hour !
