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!
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?
Yesterday I wended my way on down to the Quay and hopped on the Narrabeen over to Manly.
I was a truly beautiful day for it! The water was crystal clear!
Coming back I was moved (as always) by coming ‘round the corner to see Sydney all spread out before you, just like in the postcards!
Of course the Opera House looks best from the water!
But the Bridge is pretty spectacular as well!
Not that you can make it out so well in this picture of the Quay, but the ferry on the left is the Charlotte, who I used to regularly take to work! (A few years ago now!)
Then it was everyone off, and I was whisked away by a Sydney bus to dinner at the RSL. Yep, I’m livin’ the dream! *grins*
