This is our fourth trip together. After 2 hours at the airport we left Sacramento. After 1.5 hours we arrived at Los Angeles airport. We sat at the LA airport for 4 hours and then flew to Sydney Australia. Look how long the flight is. 20.5 hours after leaving our home we arrived. The bus to the airport was full so the hotel had sent us a fancy new BMW with a driver on the right side. Arriving at the hotel. The Hotel Menzies had a tiki bar and restaurant, imagine that. Outside for a walk. The view from our room. After a bite to eat we went to sleep at 2 PM their time. We got up 12 hours later. The next day we started our walk. We eventually bought tickets on the red bus and saw some of the city. We got off at Darling Harbor and went to the zoo. There we met Nichole and the Croc hunter. We saw frogs and snakes. Then my favorite bird since I was 26 months old and my mom gave me a scrap book of National Geographic picture. I bonded with the bird. This is a real Cassowary baby. When they grow up they can rip you to shreds in seconds. Dan was almost eaten and I was terrified by this spider. The Koala slept through it all. Back on the pier we ran into a tiki restaurant with $5 taco's at happy hour. It was closed so I don't know if they were worth the price. We walked to the end and found this tribute to John Lennon. When we started back we heard our names being called. Of all the places in Sydney we ended up on the same pier. We had a nice treat and visit. Polynesian Paddy, Barbara and we got back on the red bus. We saw the bridge that is so famous and the Opera House. On the bus we didn't sit together due to crowding. We got off at St. Mary's church and walked all the way to enter. So worth it. Then we split up and Dan and I walked to the tower that is sprouting out of his head. This first view from the tower shows the bridge and the Opera House. The second more of the port. We peeked into the Tiki Bar. We'll return on our last night in Sydney. More Tomorrow, cheers, Wendy
