Day 12: So Manly

After such a late night out, we took a while to get out of the house! Jo and I went to the Art Gallery of New South Wales, which was amazing. We saw a great section of Aboriginal art, which was my main priority once at the museum. The exhibits were great, definitely worth a couple trips to take it all in.

Then we caught a ferry across the bay, over to Manly Beach. The ferry rides was about 30 minutes of incredible views! The beach was another sight to see. Once getting of the ferry, we had to walk down a promenade of shops and restaurants and eventually ended at the beach. I spent a little time on the beach, and a little time in the shops. I'd realized that I'd hardly spent any time looking for some special odds and ends to bring home!

That night for dinner we picked up a little something special for dinner - kangaroo! Can you believe you can just buy kangaroo in the supermarket?! Jesse grilled some up for us, and I have to say, it wasn't bad at all. Read this interesting article about eating kangaroos.
