Today we start with a historical walking tour of The Rocks. They still have the cobblestones and everything. This is (now) a cutesy part of town where we went to dinner COUNTLESS times over the week. Historically though the Rocks is where the convicts who established Australia first landed and then it turned into a blue collar town and now a cutesy walk with shops and cafes. Well its a bit drizzly as we walk around the town (and through since technically all of the buildings are government owned, and are just rented out by businesses). It was super interesting. Here are some pictures:

Then we were off on a ferry to Manly beach, just 30 minutes out. A cute beach town with shops and a pretty walk through the mountains. We got Fish and Chips and sat by the beach, explored the suburbs, got a little lost, and got a major sugar fix.
