Sydney
We
received Sydney, the most famous city of Australia with 3,7 million inhabitants
after a 19-hour flying time from home. At our arrival, the sun was shining and
the temperature was high. From our Hotel we enjoy the spectacular view to the
Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. Unfortunately the weather did not continue
during our visit, because the other 8 days there were strong rainfalls, drizzle
and cool temperatures about 20°C. But that didn’t matter. Sydney was
fascinating at all. At first we went to the Opera House the famous landmark of
Sydney.
Our
planned Bridge Climbing became a victim of the inconsistent weather. Sydney has
probably the most beautiful port of the world.
At
the Circular Quay opposite the Rocks it takes place both, the elegant and the
uncomplicated and artistic life in the city. Here, particularly on the weekends,
is big Showtime. Many Live-bands and Artists act here.
You
can reach modern quarters such as Darling Harbour, the old Victorian quarter
Paddington, or the nightclub district Kingscross without any problems, by public
traffic. Further highlights of this city are the many parks, for example the
Hyde Park with its enormous old trees.
Due
to the bad weather we visited the Sydney aquarium, the great old shopping
centres, like the Queen Victoria Building and the Strand. A guided tour trough
the Opera House was another highlight of our stay.
In
Sydney you can do everything, all kinds of sports and you can have much fun
everywhere. A special experience for us was to go by ferryboat from the Circular
Quay to the Taronga Zoo. From here you can see the whole city and most of the
landmarks. Either by ferry or by bus you can go to more than 20 city beaches
with its very clear water.
Sydney
inspired us at all. Everything like feeling, meal, art or culture, sport, fun
and more, was greatly.
We
come back!
