Felt like mixing it up so went for a dusk picnic which we shared with bats, possums and mosquitoes.
You do feel you’re at the heart of Port Jackson at this point, with almost 360 degree views and surrounded by water craft.
Robertsons Point is actually the pointy end of Cremorne Point.
It’s named after James Robertson, a Scottish watchmaker who was granted 35 hectares in 1820. It was then sold to James Milson (of Milsons Point fame) who leased 22 acres for an amusement park called Cremorne Gardens, modeled on a similar pleasure garden in London. Activities included quoits, gymnastics and fireworks. Oh my! More on this when we get to Cremorne Point.
(PS we later took some shots from the ferry during the day.)
