Sydney - tales of harbour fun and lame tours!

Text written in: English

Sydney!  Wow!  Where to even begin?  Nayha and I arrived for our flight about fifty seconds before it left, lol, (stalled further by Nayha's refusal to listen to me and us ending up on the complete opposite end of the plane lol) and enjoyed many, MANY laughs when Nayha strapped her stuffed koala bear into the empty seat next to us!  Oh god how much did we laugh when the flight attendant looked at it - looked away - came back in like a minute and asked us to take it out hahahahaha!!  Anyway we dropped our stuff  off at the hostel and then headed out on the town!

We went to the Aquarium which was a huge blast - we saw tons of cool fishies, turtles, platypuses, crock-o-diles, sharks and manta/sting rays!  Awesome!  Had to fend for ourselves through the massive family crowds that a Saturday brings, lol, but there weren't so many people there that we couldn't survive.  Also loved the jellyfish, cool!!!

Then we saw Darling Harbour which was AWESOME - definitely another place added to my favourite places!  Then we walked to circular quay to see the Opera House and the harbour bridge - awesome!  Posed for the typical five hundred tourist photos, lol, and enjoyed the afternoon!  Oh, had some AWESOME food at the Darling Harbour (pumpkin ravioli)!  While waiting for our ghost walk tour to start we came across an amazing artist named Ken Duncan - his photography of Australia stole my heart!

So yeah - sadly our tour of the haunted areas was fairly lame - less about gruesome murders and more about the tour guide's feelings about these murders, lol!  But it was totally worth the money because we got to go underground into an area where they've got an actual building still from the 1800s--super creepy indeed!
