Kangaroo Dinner

Kangaroo Dinner - Tuesday Dec 2

Last day at the beach then on to the city.  We had a terrible storm overnight, so we slept in a bit.  Packing was a challenge as there were too many things to bring home.  We donated all our cooking utensils, towels, and food to St. Vincent de Paul.  They run a van every night for the down and out serving hot drinks and sandwiches.  We ran into them as we left the train station last night and knew that was where all our extra stuff would go.  They were pleased and took everything.

Next, we found a business to weigh our bags and ship the extra stuff home.  That was much less expensive than another suit case over four flights. (Auckland, Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto)  Four flights to get home!!!

We drove along the Pacific Scenic Drive up to Sidney.  Coffees and lunch on the way.  I booked into the hotel while Alan took the car back while I checked into the hotel.  We are right across from departures and only have to walk.  They even provided a cart at the entrance of the hotel that can be taken over to the terminal tomorrow.  It was handy when I was manoeuvring the luggage etc. by myself. Alan had Kangaroo for dinner!!! And no I did not!!!
