... with the backdrop of the majestic 19th century Queen Victoria shopping center, St Andrews Cathedral, the oldest cathedral in Sydney, and the equally historic sandstone Sydney Town Hall. It is fun to just stroll around this particular intersection at ...

... breakfast for dinner, a delicious fruit smoothie, and have fully packed. It remains again for me to thank those who made Sydney special - it's becoming a habit.  And to tell my friends how much I have missed them. Until the next time, farewell ...

... it has been a great way to finish off the Australian leg of our trip. We did the normal touristy things - going to the Sydney Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, Manly and Bondi Beaches, walked most of the city and generally having fun! The food is pretty ...
