7/30 The Sydney Bridge and the Opera house



It was raining heavily outside with a combination of strong wind and lightning. Today’s the first day rain dropped since coming to Sydney, but the schedule still had to go on.

(We had steak for dinner and it was 2 AUD in exchange for a fairly big piece. Though I wondered how it tasted so much like lamb chop…Roxie also bought some mushrooms with eggs in Oyster Sauce, which tasted great! And finally five sticks of roasted chicken, rounding up the meaty dinner.)

We went from our hostel all the way to the North tip of Sydney, just to see the bridge and the Opera House. There was also this really cool Modern Art Museum ran by a guy called Kendone. It was selling one of these beautiful and creative jacket, but cost about 100 AUD each… so much for art HAHA. Roxie twisted her ankle on the wayso we were taking a slower pace. By the time we reached our destination, the riverside bank where we can both see the Bridge and the Opera House, there was this really nice gentlemen with two babies in his hand asking to take our picture, we were really flattered.

Roxie and I also visited an aboriginal store which contained many beautiful didgeridoos and boomerangs, unlike the cheap ones selling at the souvenir stores outside, these were real, heavy made of hardwood. The prices were also pretty hard… 


Our last stop today was the custom house, it was pretty boring except a full modeling landscape of Sydney on the floor, still worth a visit~
