Cockatoo Island - The largest island in Sydney Harbour. Read more about our adventures there in the September 2010 blog entries.
Even the guards' quarters had bars on the windows, protecting them from the prisoners. You can see some of the ship building equipment in the background.
Rather than hanging their rifles on the pegs, Jake thought the guards should use the pegs as seats. Comfortable.
View from Cockatoo. Not bad for a prison.
