The other day I heard a quote that photo albums (substitute blogs) are made up of one pretty snapshot to another. The normal days are what get you between snapshots. Well, lest anyone be confused, life is still full of normal days when you're travelling the world, but those snapshot days are pretty incredible.
Yesterday was a snapshot day. Our trigger-happy fingers snapped plenty of shots, actually, and we'll post them soon. Sydney is B-E-A-utiful! Seriously, one of the prettiest cities I've ever been in.
The Royal Botanic Gardens near the Opera House highlighted our day yesterday. Wild Cockatoos are in the trees (have we mentioned Australia's amazing birdlife!? Rainbow Lorikeets EVERYWHERE). Fruit bats - hundreds of them - decorated one corner of the gardens. Creepy and fascinating at the same time. Not too used to seeing bats in the daylight. But remember, this is still in a CITY, not a wildlife preserve or something.
The water of the Harbour is just as clear as the see-through waters of the Islands that we've become so fond of.
And the Opera House ... well, it really is an odd building, isn't it? But it works - it caught our eye all day, reminding us "we're in SYDNEY - yay".
It's definitely colder here down South, but despite rain forecasts, the sun has befriended us and is now beckoning us to a second day of exploring this beautiful city.
