Although I have been living in Sydney 6 months, I am constantly being a tourist in my own city. Looking for any opportunity to do something crazy or different. And Fort Denison is a great example of this.
On the train ride home, I was reading the Newspaper about Sunset Sessions at Fort Denison: every Friday and Sunday until the rest of the summer, Fort Denison would hold Sunset Sessions where you could Water Taxi out to the Fort and sit around enjoying cocktails and food while watching the sunset over the Harbour and listening to a Jazz band play. How could I resist?!
So I got 3 of my girlfriends together, put our sundresses on and had a great time!
Fort Denison was used in the early days of settlement in Sydney as jail for the convict population. During the mid 19th century a Fort was built on the island to protect Sydney Harbour. There is so much history on the Fort, and the best part was that we got to walk around and read all about - with wine in hand!
