Day 7: Sydney

Last full day in Sydney.  Lots of rain.  Left me highly unmotivated to go out.  So spent most of the day hanging out in the hotel reading (and finishing off my repacking).

The highlight of the day was dinner w/Lindy & Sam.  They both work at ThoughtWorks.   Lindy is a native Sydney(ite?) and Sam is a recent transplant.  Had a wonderful dinner of lamb, corn & baked potato -- along with some very nice Aussie red wine.  For dessert, we had gelato and some macarons that I brought with me.  And some Patron XO Cafe -- which was very good.

Weather:  Rain (very heavy at times), 73F
Miles Walked:  2
Book/s Finished: 1 (After I'm Gone by Laura Lippman; very very slow start -- but last 1/3 was good)
Transportation:  2 taxis
