GOOD DAY SYDNEY!





AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE! OY OY OY! Sydney, Australia is such a fun city. There is tons of nightlife, tons to see and do. Sure, people say that it is difficult to travel from Sydney, but there are actually a lot of places close by. There is Manley Beach, Bondi Beach, the Bat Caves, and the Blue Mountains. Of course, there is the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. This bridge is a wonder in itself. You can climb the bridge at any time 24/7/365. My family and I went in 2005 to Sydney. We climbed the bridge at dawn and saw the city awaken. It was one of the most gorgeous sites ever. On New Year's Eve, we went to the Sydney Opera House and watched the fireworks above the Harbour Bridge at midnight. TIP: Look forwatching the new year's eve fireworks at the Harbour Bridge on TV as Sydney is one of the first cities to ring in the New Year. We were only there for a week, so all the sight seeing was crammed in. At the Blue Mountains, there is a site that is called the seven siblings. It is really difficult to locate all seven of them (my family spent at least a good 20 minutes). We eventually gave up, and our tour guide pointed them out for us. Try to plan New Year's Eve in Sydney and do not forget to see a wallabee or koala bear!

GOODBYE MATE!

  2. You forgot to mention Shelley!

    That was an amazingly fun trip! We should go back because NOW I'm old enough to climb the bridge :]

    Remember the wallabee that was following my dad around? And Geoffrey the koala?

  3. I went to a cricket match between Australia and Bangladesh when I visited Australia, and I clearly remember everyone chanting "AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE OY OY OY" brought back memories :)
