A day full of adventures

We had a magical day with Bernice at the Rocks, a street market in the city (close to the Harbour Bridge). With a map from the hotel, we began our adventure. After a short while of walking, we decided that we should take a bus to the Rocks, which was at the end of George Street. We thus had our first experience of taking a public bus in Sydney with Bernice. It was her first experience too!


Our first stop after we alighted the bus. Much to our delight, we were welcomed by the ice-cream stand! Bernice had a peppermint ice cream and we had a lemon sorbet. We had a great time walking down Circular Quay with our ice cream.


Bernice was really easy to hang out with. She was especially mature, sensible and well-behaved. On top of that, she was very cooperative whenever I fussed over her to keep herself clean. She was puzzled why I brought her to the toilet so many times to wash her hands. Nevertheless, she was always ready to oblige. I caught her puzzled look once and broke into a giggling fit that I could not stop. She laughed along with me in the toilet!


Our second stop was at the Rocks. It was a street market full of interesting items. We had fun browsing and snacking on roasted, caramelised almond nuts.




The rest of the pictures were taken by the great photographer - Bernice Tang! We discovered another hidden talent of this bright, beautiful young girl. When she was taking these pictures, she had the stance of a professional photographer and the passerbys were all quite amused and impressed by this little girl.

Shame on us but it took us a few photos before we could trust that we fit into her camera frame. Note the last pic. I was by then standing.
