The Manly ferry
into Circular Quay gives a great view of the Sydney Harbour Bridge aka
the Clothes-hanger (spot those minuscule figures doing the SHB climb...)
and of course the Opera House, next to which we picnicked (including being
dive-bombed by hungry/greedy gulls).
Around the corner is the impressive Gothic former Government House (sadly closed for tours til tmrw - but meanwhile we wandered the grounds : look at the size
of the fig trees compared to Duncan on the bench!) and looked in at the Botanical Gardens.
As well as its famous beach, Manly has a fine council building and war memorial, with Australian and Aboriginal flags flying.
