G'day from Sydney


Hi

We arrived in Sydney yesterday, the people are much more forward in their approach than New Zealanders. We nearly got ripped off by touts at the airport and then the taxi driver tried to persuade us to sell up everything in the UK, move in with him and set up businesses over here. That was in a 20 minute journey!

Our hotel overlooks both the harbour bridge and the opera house and the view is amazing.

The temp is about 75 degrees so really pleasant. We took a stroll down to one of the harbours and just wandered around the bars, restaurants etc. we can see why young british people travel out here and stay.

We eventually walked back to the hotel and used the hotel restaurant on the 36th floor overlooking the opera house. At 10pm their was a wonderful firework display that no one seemed to be expecting. No pictures I forgot my camera! We will be able to view it from our room tonight so will try some pictures then.

today we have a boat trip round the harbour and trips up a large tower etc.etc.

The photos in Sydney 1 are a few from our hotel on the last day in Fiji including a dance show at night and then the rest are all Sydney
