That was Eden restaurant Portpower on the Edge last night. Superb meal. I’ve never been an MDR kinda guy and wasn’t keen on Atlantide. Different setup on here, they have 4included MDR but not MDR but they still are MDR. Several specialities too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d also love to visit Scarborough (yours not ours) and wouldn’t break out in a rash If I got to visit Bee Gees alley! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to Scarborough Country Day School in the States - not far from Sing Sing prison. The school was lovely but the lights would dim when the prison was executing someone!

Well that settles it. not a fancy place but gets good reviews and is in Scarborough. https://www.scarboroughharbourbc.com.au/ They have bookings available on Saturday from 4pm until 7.30pm. So decision one is how early you would like to eat. But there is another thing to consider a little further on in this post. We can visit one of their boyhood homes on the way to the restaurant. https://www.mustdobrisbane.com/visitor-info-arts-culture-history/bee-gees-house-scarborough But the second decision will impact on the first decision. Would you like to visit Bee Gee alley before dinner or after dinner when there is a sound and light show. We might have to miss lunch! https://www.mustdobrisbane.com/features/bee-gees-way-redcliffe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DavyWavey70 Posted January 25 #19557 Share Posted January 25 Sounds great DrRon. Qantas have bumped my flight back so I expect to get to the hotel 4ish so prob 7.30 would be safer? I Like the sound of the light show after dinner too. Can’t wait to meet you both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare drron29 Posted January 25 #19560 Share Posted January 25 We will pick you up at your hotel. Is it still the BW North Lakes? From there just 20 minutes to Bee Gees Way and 10 minutes to the restaurant. The boyhood home of the Bee Gees would be a drive past and is only a 100 metre deviation from the direct drive. So pick up at 6.30 if you want a half hour at the Alley but we would be happy with 6pm for an hours visit or a bit longer drive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DavyWavey70 Posted January 25 #19563 Share Posted January 25 Usually I find disembarkation day quite sad. Not today, and not for the wrong reasons either. I Had a lovely stroll around Sydney up hill and down dale, such a wonderful city. Nice to explore on foot but todays humidity didn’t make for the easiest expedition. My digs here aren’t too bad. I Came back to wave my friends old and new off on their next sector. Got some nice footage of the Edge leaving port (4.00 departure due to Australia Day preparations). Booked myself onto a Dinner cruise on the Clearview this evening and it was fabulous. I Had the best time. The Harbour was as still and serene as anything this evening. I Just wish I had a canon for those bloody awful party boats that have awful DJs and lighting from wish. Why blast the music outside the boat and ruin it for everybody else? Tall ship tomorrow for the race for Australia Day. I Think it’s going to be another fine day. IMG_5240.MOV 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I don't have a chauffeur's hat so I hope you don't mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
