Our last full day in Oz, back to Sydney 16th Jan

So our last full day in Oz was going to be a travelling one, leaving Hamilton Island to head back to Sydney. We took one last look at that amazing view from our balcony at The Reef View and headed off to the airport.
Jayne was able to capture the changing landscape as we headed South, from the islands of the Whitsundays through to Sydney
How ironic that once again our view of Whitehaven beach was obscured by cloud!
The North Sydney beaches
And finally over the city
We decided to get the train into the city which was quick but not particularly cheap, although it did help us get our bearings
And finally to our City view apartment on Pitt Street, Emma and Will soon made themselves at home
We didn't have much time before heading off to meet the Robins Family in Darling Harbour for a well deserved Curry.....mmmmmm!
It was as if the Children had never been apart
Followed by a trip an Icecream parlour AD knew of....he had never been there before though....' Hello Mr Two Scoops'....was how they greeted him....! (OK they didn't really but he had two scoops and we all only had one....so he deserved that!)
We thought the children were quiet
But soon realised that quiet does not necessarily mean behaving, Will and Charlie were having a smear as much Icecream around our face as is possible competition
.....the difference between boys and girls.....you gotta love em!
Finally a long goodbye, with The Robins heading for home
 and us heading of for some final tourist shots
Then a long walk round to Circular key for the all important bridge and opera house nighttime shots

Oh and it was a Full moon for our final night, although I'm really not sure how I got the others, maybe less light pollution?
