Sydney. Bridge, Opera and stuff




OK. Sydney. Famous for old bridge and newer opera house. They're great but look better on the boat to Manly (next post).

We always thought that Sydney was a laid back place with people spending too much time surfing and drinking and not enough time working. Not so says the taxi driver. Claims people in Sydney live to work, where we in Europe work to live.I'll drink to that.

Sydney is a very pleasant city. Surrounded by water and colonial history. Go to:
The Rocks. The first settlement from the 1780s.
Look at the bridge from underneath, and of course the harbour. That's about it really. Oh and you can eat cheaply Mondays and Tuesdays in the heart of the city. Steaks as big as your arm for ten dollars - sick squid (£6)
