Sydney 2000 Olympics.

---

Pris and I were on the phone with each other watching the opening ceremony of the Olympics on tv, when we were hit by a brilliant idea to catch a flight there for a day. We thought it'd be good to at least watch some event so we bought tickets to the women's indoor volleyball.

Weather wasn't really good the day we went but that didn't stop us from snapping pictures and walking in the rain.

At the volleyball, we saw Gustavo Kuerten the Brazillian tennis player. I was too chicken to ask for a picture, but he was giving out Brazil t-shirts and we got some (Brazil was playing that night). They're really noisy party people, the Brazillians. But you need atmosphere like that to really enjoy yourself anyway.

Sydney Opera House.
I've seen so many pictures of the Opera House but nothing beats seeing it in person. It's an Australian icon.

Opera House front.
Pris and I infront of the Opera House.

Harbour Bridge
The famous Harbour Bridge, where the fireworks go off every year at New Year's. You can actually scale the bridge if you like - of course there are guides! Pretty freaky but I'd give it a go if I ever went back.

Museum.
Museum of Sydney. There are tree trunks on the right; some quotes are carved onto them.

Rings.
Olympic rings at the city centre.

Indoor volleyball.
Brazil in the yellow. Can't remember who they played against. Maybe Cuba. Can't even remember who won! Geez.

Free tees.
In our free Brazil supporter t-shirts. I still have mine. Not in the greatest of conditions, but hey I still have it!

Crowd.

Full-on supporter.
This guy was so cute we just had to get a picture!
