The Opera House is just a short distance away on the other side of the inlet. The ...

Won&#8217;t even pay the entrance fee.<br> Sunday morning we browsed The Rocks (tourist) market and sorted out plans for the coming few days - Vicky and Fliss will walk over the Sydney Bridge&#8230;&#8230; I might walk under it - it&#8217;s cheaper! In the afternoon I agreed to the &#8220;Essential Sydney Opera House&#8221; tour.

The children's fireworks were at 8/9 and they were pretty good but we were still waiting for the main event. It was starting to fill up at this stage but we still had space.

... cuisine imaginable, bars, shops, a casino and a wonderful aquarium that is not to be missed. The sea animals swim round and round you as you descend further down into the aquarium, looking up at them as they pass you.<br><br>We chose to hop the &#8220;loop&#8221; train that wheeled us around to the &#8220;Queen Victoria Building&#8221; in the heart of the downtown area. This elegant old structure still retains its original beauty and class. The clock tower peals at ...
