Having flown in from Melbourne, I spent just a couple of days in Sydney before my onward flight, but it was enough to see what I wanted.
Arriving in the afternoon, I visited the Australia Museum where there was a good section on Aborigines as well as Hyde Park and the ANZAC Memorial.
On my full day I visited the rest of the city, including the Queen Victoria Building and the Botanical Gardens, before making it over to the landmark of the city...Sydney Harbour with the Bridge and Opera House in sight.
After viewing them from both afar and from up close, I walked around The Rocks before visiting Darling Harbour, where a Japanese girl dancing with Hula Hoops told the crowd she had come all the way here just to do so, and that people think she's crazy - I can't imagine why!!
Sydney was much warmer than Melbourne, at about 21 degrees, and was a very interesting city, but once again I found that two days was plenty for me, and the following morning I took a plane to visit more relatives over in New Zealand!
