The Sydney Fish Market is an amazing place .... so much, well, FISH! The area isn't that pretty and parking can be a bit of a battle. On the weekend ff you arrive before 11am you're sure to find a space and can get in, get what you need, and get out before bus loads of tourist and day trippers arrive.
As usual we have coffee in the Blackwattle Deli first - Great Coffee - while sitting at a busy communal table amongst the stacks of goods on sale. There is a very cosmopolitan feel even though you also have a pungent wafting smell of fish all around.
And then, on the way back, we stop at Blackman Park to give Molly a good run. This is a HUGE park usually full of 3 or 4 games of cricket going at once but because its still the Christmas hols there was absolutely no one else about...not even other dog walkers.
Nice ... but the heat was starting to rise so we didn't spend too long there. For a working dog, Molly isn't too fussed on the heat. She will run after the ball a few times and then take it and lay down in the shade...she's not dumb.
Back home and a lazy afternoon staying out of the sun. Last night I finished watching Downton Abbey Series 2...and the Christmas Special too. I am SO hooked on that show. Can't wait to get started on Series 3 which has been delayed here until February. Back to the gym tomorrow to start moving some of the extra weight I've added over the last month. It's been fun. Guess most things get back to some sort of normalcy tomorrow as well. I love those 2 weeks of Christmas and New Year even though I'm not working any more. They make doing nothing seem so OK.
