G day mates from down under. We arrived into Sydney airport on time around 9.30am and jumped on the subway to Central station from where we had a short walk to hotel. Although we arrived early morning we were still able to get into rooms, which was a welcome relief as we quickly flung ourselves into our beds for a bit of shut eye.
We awoke, dressed and then walked into town along George Street which runs the length of the city. Halfway into town we jumped on the free circular bus and took it as far as Circular Quay where we got to see the Bridge and Opera House (typical tourists). With the flight starting to catch up with us we jumped into a cab and returned to the hotel for a rest and showers.
After resting we changed and went for a walk through China Town to Darling Harbour, where Myself, Sue and Chris had a lovely Tapas and Kayleigh had a not so nice paella at a waterside Restaurant. Once again we walked, yes walked back to hotel where we settled down for a well earned nights sleep.
We awoke to rain and Simpsons on the tele, its now 8am as I type (badly) and the kids are slowly waking. Today we are off to Manly beach and tonight the restaurant on the top of the Sky Tower, look forward to telling you all about that later.
