Ferry, across the harbour

Drizzling with rain as the ferry, Borrowdale, eased down upon the approach to the Quay. I had scrambled aboard at Darling Harbour wharf for the short, 20 minute, trip via the Casino, McMahons Point, and finally Milsons Point, before a watchful scamper across the harbour, and into Sydney Cove.

No reason for the trip, just because I could.

Sail of the Line


" ... the finest harbour in the world, in which a thousand sail of the line may ride in the most perfect security ... "

Captain Arthur Phillip, January 1788
