More sightseeing taking in Parliament House, the Old Post Office, The Royal Mint and the Supreme Court before sitting enjoying the 32degrees in Flagstaff gardens.
In the afternoon we wander through the Italian quarter which is a contrast to the CBD as it is low buildings, small individual shops and loads of cafes and restaurants. A lively atmosphere and quite busy for early afternoon.
The comedy club is held in one of the many theatres, and being the first show of the new year was packed with everyone in good spirits. As well as the compere there are three acts all of whom were extremely funny and all the material was new to us. It appears that the Australians do not worry about political correctness and there were many racist jokes as well as ones about disabilities – although much of the humour is aimed at themselves and any aimed at others is not delivered with any spite. A really enjoyable evening, remind us to tell you the knitting joke when we get back!
love & LOL hugs...
