Sydney Aquarium

For the final leg of our journey we headed back to Sydney. We got a flight from Cairns to Sydney and again stayed at Maze Backpackers but this time in an 8 bed dorm.

Day 18 (16th January) - After arriving in Sydney early we decided to head to the Aquarium where we spent the day. I was actually a little disappointed by the aquarium, whilst …

Ce matin j’avais prévu d’aller à Manly beach, mais mes coups de soleil m’en ont dissuadé, et j’ai donc décidé d’aller à Darling Harbour pour continuer à visiter le centre. A 10 min a pied du backpacker, je suis arrivé dans un récent centre urbain, tout moderne, qui se prolonge sur le port. Il y a des grands centres …

On Saturday I got on a plane ride to Australia. It took 17 hours to get when I got there I was jet lagged I got all my luggage. we stayed at the Aron's hotel.W where happy to be out of the cold and snowy Wisconsin weather and into 60 degree weather The next day for lunch we had some famous Australian sandwiches. I learned some karate moves from …

15 and half hours is an extremely long time to sit on an airplane! 'Nuff said.

However, we did survive and relatively unscathed. No major disasters ensued, however our previously spread eagled daughter had a minor meltdown when we dragged her wobbly body from the lounge floor, onto the plane and told her she wasn't allowed to lie down …

Highlights of Sydney for me.

Coogee beach. Beautiful beach with lovely surroundings. A ten minute walk from our room.
Very empty in the morning and began to fill later in the day. We lay in golden sand and enjoyed some sun.

Mission to Bondi. Caught a few buses, took us a few days to master the system but we got there in the …

Så er vi atter på den nordlige halvkugle, og på vej retur mod Danmark. Vi havde som sagt lagt et ekstra stop ind på vejen, nemlig via Sydney – og vi fortrød på ingen måder vores bump!

Det var dog en noget underlig velkomst vi fik af byen, da det mildest talt væltede ned og vi måtte derfor holde i kø hele vejen fra lufthavnen og ind …

Here we are!!! We start our Australian 4-day tour in every city. The weather is maybe the best that we could find because it is not that hot once it is the beginning of the summer.

Sydney is the largest city of the continent with a magnificent array of cultural and architectural delights. We spent four days there and we did various things …

The coach got to Sydney around 8.30am. After feeling as though we were literally dumped outside the train station, I decided a taxi would be the best way to get to the hostel, since I didn't really know where it was, or how far. So I got a coffee and muffin in the station, then got a
taxi.

I don't think the driver knew exactly where I …

Our flights landed at Sydney International Airport at around 8am in the morning, with mostly overcast sky awaiting us. To our surprise, we weren't really feeling tired after the long flight, maybe thanks to the adrenaline of being in Australia for the first time. We quickly grabbed our luggage, made our way to the train terminal, and bought tickets …
