Sisters

Here's Alison and myself in her garden this morning in front of her impressive sweet pea display.  She and Peter then drove Martin and me to the railway station so we could take a train to Sydney.  It's always hard saying good bye to them as we never know when we will see them again.  
Once in Sydney we checked in at our hotel and visited the Hyde Park  Barracks, which were built to house the early convicts who were transported to Australia. Conditions were very harsh for them. Later, the Barracks housed immigrant women, especially those arriving from Ireland.
