Australia - Sydney pt2


AUSTRALIA - Sydney

We are still in Sydney and loving it. On this particular day we walked across the Harbour Bridge to Luna Park and back again just as the sun was setting. It is possible to walk OVER the very top of the bridge for c$200 but we found the public paths gave greats views for free. That evening walking along George St a London Routemaster bus zoomed past, followed by several other vintage buses.When it stopped down the road I found out they were being used for the art festival 'Art & About' - providing free 10 laps of Sydney until 10pm.
