Sydneyside

 
We've covered many miles these past few weeks! It has been both exciting and exhausting, though. I am now looking forward to some quiet time at home over the Christmas/New Year break.
 
Last weekend we were in Sydney for a few days. I was last there in autumn 2012, but it was Shane's first time to the harbourside city, so we spent most of our time doing a lot of touristy things and getting in all the major sites.
 
Being sub-tropical, Sydney has many grey skies at this time of year, but it wasn't the slightest bit cold. Both Shane and I enjoyed the slightly balmy (but not so balmy it was uncomfortable) weather, and the morning and evening rainstorms. It is certainly something we don't get to experience all too often in the arid Flinders Ranges!
 
If you are ever in Sydney yourself, I strongly recommend you try the amazing, authentic Thai food (which is available in abundance), take the ferry to Manly, and participate in The Rocks Ghost Tour.
