Sydney Day 2, 3 & 4

We've been pretty busy walking and walking and walking around the city and outskirts.  The weather has turned to sunshine (although today-Wednesday, is iffy).  Day 2 Bob and I walked down to Darling Harbour and had dinner at a Pub.  The norm here is to go up to the bar and order your food and drink, pay and then they bring it to you.  I have only had 2 dinners, where you they take your order at your table, since I've been in Oz.  

Day 3 we walked all around the Botanical Gardens near the Opera House.   

Day 4 Kyle took us to Bondi Beach & Manly Beach via the ferry.

Here are the pics!

Botanical Gardens







This pond is near the ocean and the eels from the harbour slither across the grass at night and jump into the pond.  They apparently take down the ducks.  The ducks apparently feed on the baby eels.  Its the circle of life.  haha






The Opera House is SEVERAL buildings (venues).  I couldn't stop taking pics of it from different angles.


Bondi Beach

Self-explanatory  haha!

It's Fall here but the temperature is a perfect 25 celsius

Today we are checking out the countryside and also meeting Pat's parents at their farm.
