We had an early start to catch plane from Hobart to Sydney at 8.25am sad to be saying goodbye but the last part of of our antipodean adventure continues in Sydney.
We arrived in Sydney at just gone 10am and managed to find our way to Epping to be met by my old school friend Andy and we were welcomed by him and family and had a gorgeous BBQ lunch with them
In the afternoon Andy took us into the city and we checked into our hotel and then went on a guided walking tour which took us through the domain past the art gallery along the sea wall to Mrs Macquarie's chair from which we got a spectacular view across to opera house and harbour bridge. We continued onto botanical gardens and looked for painted koalas- and onto the Opera House which is world heritage listed and designed by artitect jorn Urzon and opened by the Queen in 1973 we also got some stunning shots of the harbour bridge which opened in 1932 as the world's tallest steel arch briidge- you can do the harbour climb and get to the very top or stroll over at your own pace
We finished our evening with pizza on the quayside another great day
