08/11/24 - Last Day in Sydney

We had one last day in Sydney. We have long been fans of Neil Perry who ran the restaurant Rockpool, one of our favorites. He recently opened a new restaurant, Margaret, which has wonderful seafood in a neighborhood, Double Bay, we had never explored. We had trevally and coral trout wings and big eye tuna. We had hispi cabbage which seems to be a coming thing down under, and since we were down under, we even had an excellent pavlova. It had vanished from menus, crept back on disguised as "Eton mess" but is now out front and center as pavlova. The Australians should be proud of it.

We had taken a taxi to the restaurant, but our waitress suggested we could just take a ferry back. Indeed, the ferry terminal was just a few blocks away through an upmarket shopping district, and there was a ferry coming in soon. We had a beautiful sunset cruise through the harbor with spectacular views of the Sydney skyline and now familiar landmarks. It was a great last evening before our long, long, long flight home.
