A very busy few days!
On Friday I did my Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb and it was fantastic!!!
I arrived at the centre early (8am) and got 'kitted out'. I felt apprehensive and excited as we stepped out onto the bridge. A brilliant climb to the top. Our tour guide was excellent and told us lots of facts about the bridge. It was a really exhilarating experience. One I'll never forget. :-)
In the afternoon we met up with Ruth's Aunt and Uncle and had a wander around Paddy's Markets. We enjoyed a nice meal out together in the evening.
On Saturday we met up with Ruth's parents and enjoyed a morning coffee in the Opera Bar before walking around the Rocks and the markets. In the afternoon we continued to make the most of the gorgeous weather and visited the beautiful Chinese Gardens. I managed to squeeze in a quick gym session whilst Ruth and her family enjoyed tea in the gardens.
In the evening Ruth and I went to Oxford Street to see the annual Mardi Gras Parade. It was brilliant.
Vibrant, colourful and certainly very entertaining! :-)
We were lucky enough to jostle our way to the front of the barriers for great views of the parade.
This morning we all went on a tour of the inside of the Opera House. An interesting tour. Learnt about the architecture, the different theatres and got a chance to see back stage.
Tomorrow we're off to Manly....
