At midnight, British girl came to my room(The hotel has share rooms). So, I woke up suddenly.
She was drunken and I felt sleepy. Soon after chatting for a few minutes, she went out somewhere.
In the morning, I went to Hungry Jacks, which is a humberger chain.
Today's purpose is to go to Wollongong.
When I reached Central station, it was long before departure of the train for Kiama*1. So, I took an earlier train for Waterfall, which is the intermediate station between Central and Wollongong. In the train, I found some trams in front of Loftus station. After this trip, I knew this is Sydney Tram Museum. I should have searched before travelling.
From Waterfall to Woolongong, I took a train which passed through some stations.

At Woollongong, I got off the train and headed for a lighthouse.

Wollongong station
On my way to get there, I found a Vietnamese restaurant. Because one of my friends from Sydney said she wanted me to eat Pho in Australia, I decided to eat Pho at the restaurant. Unfortunately, Pho served to me wasn't delicious.
I reached the lighthouse.

There were just beach and the lighthouse.
According to a map established roadside, it seemed that I could walk to North Woolongong station.
So, I really walked to the station. But, My poor geographical knowledge about this area, I mistakenly took a longer route to get to the station.

At the station, I felt like going to toilet. But, there wasn't a toilet near the station. So, I had no choice but to go to a toilet at the station. The toilet was closed unless asking the station master to open it. I called him and he opened it. It must be because of keeping safety of the toilet.
I took train for Waterfall and changed trains there. Near Helensburgh, I found a branch line. But, I couldn't recognize what it was.
I made a mistake! I should have changed trains at Hurstville to take more rapid train. My trains was overtaken by the train.
I headed for Circular Quay, where I intended to take pictures of night scene.

Then, girls from Hong Kong asked me to take a picture of them. I tried shotting. But, one of the girls claimed me that I should take once again because one of the girls was not focused. In addition to it, she lamented how bad my picture was. At last, I actually took one more picture.
I returned to a hotel.
