May 21 - Travel to Sydney, Start Exploring



This was a pretty quiet day – left for the airport at 10, flew to Sydney, checked into our hotel, then (this is the exciting part) walked to the subway station, took the train 2 stops to Sydney Harbor and walked around while Vic told us a bit about Sydney history.

Sydney is preparing for VividSydney, starting Friday, when many buildings will have light shows on them, including the Sydney Bridge and the Sydney Opera House. I had seen videos of this somewhere and am very happy that we will get to see the opening night. Tonight as we walked around, several displays were being tried out and were fascinating to watch.

We had dinner at an Irish Pub, dessert at a Copenhagen ice cream place, and came back to the hotel to prepare for Thursday, our big official tour around the city.
