We were totally overwhelmed – the frieze from the Parthenon is incredible, so many horses, so many overlapping legs and arms, so beautiful.

Also a very cool parka made out of seal intestines in the Inuit section.

Newtown has quite a few pubs – I haven’t been into all of them. My favourites are The Carlise Castle on Albermarle St, and The Town Hall which is right next to the station. Newtown also has good pizza at Wedgetail which is opposite the station next to the community centre.

There’s also a very good graveyard around St Stephens church, kind of behind the Dendy and the IGA. It’s very over grown, with huge trees and old roses gone wild amongst the graves. Some important early Sydney people are buried there. It’s an interesting place.

seals on the rocks, a lighthouse, three cottages, small plants low to the limestone, the southern ocean – very beautiful
