With Just a couple of days left to go in our Whirlwind Antipodean Tour we decided to go where everyone should go at least once in their lives (if not many, many times!), to Taronga Zoo.
We took a slightly circuitous route to get there though, going via Manly (back on the ferry) to dump our bags with the relos before heading out. And a grand day we picked for it too!
One of the most beautiful places that you can go while in Sydney is of course the Queen Victoria Building.
While Himself spent a day in the office, I was free to wander around town doing whatever I saw fit. So I pottered around in here for a while, catching up with some of my favourite shops and seeing what was on offer. Would you like to know more?
Of course, Sydney is a remarkably large place to get around when you have a lot to see, and not much time to see it in, so we gave in and rented a car for a day. And where would we go with wheels under our butts? Yep, we went up the hills to check out how much has changed up there since we moved out, back in … years ago.
Of course, some things never change. Would you like to know more?
Sydney! And George St! It was grand to be visiting again!
You know, after a couple of years on the continent, the buildings all look remarkably tall! *gapes* Would you like to know more?
As we were saying out final farewells, it was a time to drive around and remind ourselves that though Christchurch has come a long way in the three years since the big quake, there is still so much to do.
This is what’s left of the Cathedral in Cathedral Square. Still fenced off from the public.
But there has been beauty to be found as well. Would you like to know more?
