Sights of Sydney

I've enjoyed exploring Sydney so far - the harbour bridge is amazing and when Al comes out to visit we are hoping to do the famous bridge climb over the top!
The opera house is cool - although the steps are being reconstructed which is a shame for the tourist's photos. Hoping to catch a concert while Al is here.

Have also visited China town (huge proportion of the population of sydney is from East Asia), everywhere you go are sushi stands and thai restaurants doing lunchtime special menus for around a fiver!

Went to Darling harbour where there are lots of trendy bars and restaurants, as well offices and workers. I happened to visit when the Thai community were celebrating the birthday of Buddha, so there were chinese dragons, a festival and many stands providing food.

Went to Balmoral beach on sat morning with Jane and she took me to her favourite place to eat Brunch.
Nice to see where the locals hang out.

The weather has been nice and sunny each day, but it tends to really warm up in the afternoon.
