Sydney Sailaway
Our final full day in Sydney, Australia, before embarking on our 14-day circumnavigation of New Zealand, had us transferring from our condo accommodations to the Sydney Harbour Hotel, just a stone's throw from the cruise terminal. That would cut into our sightseeing a bit, but after dropping our bags at the hotel, we headed out to check out Bondi Beach, Sydney's most famous beach. We again took advantage of Sydney's great public transit system, traveling by tram, train and bus to the iconic seaside location.

They had all attended Oregon State University together (and my husband, too, though a few years ahead of the others) and all had lived in the Portland area for the past 30-some years, so they had known each other for a long time. Just within the past year Rich and Marianne had moved here to Medford in Southern Oregon, and our mutual friends, Jim and Amber, hoped we'd hit it off and help ease their friends' transition to a new place.
