On Sunday morning, we said goodbye to our cute little cottage and started the drive back to Sydney. However, about an hour in, we stopped in Glenbrook and met the lovely Rachel for brunch. She'd just returned the day before from a trip to the States, but she graciously came out and spent some time with us. I thought it was only fair that Mom & Dad should meet her since she taught us most of what we know about the Blue Mountains!
By the time we finished brunch, got back to the city, and returned the rental car, it was time for another activity! Mom and Dad chose going over to the Royal Botanic Gardens, so we hopped on everyone's favorite mode of transportation and headed across the harbour!

We only made it about halfway through the gardens before the weekend's activities caught up with us and some of us started moving very slowly. But we still got to see quite a bit, and all the rain of the last week really paid off!

When everyone had their fill of the gardens, we headed into the CBD to catch a train back home. First, though, we stopped at the grocery store where a Vegemite purchase was contemplated.
Then it was off to the apartment for making pizzas and sharing a close-knit meal around our coffee table!
