Sydney, Australia Day 2(June 2023)

 On our first full day in Sydney we got up

early and had breakfast in the Club lounge before heading

out on our jammed packed day.

Our first stop was the Sydney Opera House and

I had booked us a tour. This place had been on my bucket list.

We learned about the history of the opera house 

and how it was built.

After  the tour was done we made our way through

the Royal Botanic Garden.

We made our way through the garden and decided to find some lunch.

The little one got a ride to lunch because he was 

too hungry to walk.

After lunch we headed Hyde Park Barracks.

We had a nice chat with a lady who explained the history of 

Hyde Park Barracks, then we headed off to explore the barracks. 

I was spending so much time reading all the history that I forgot to take many pictures.

Once we got done we headed over to the 

Sydney Tower Eye.

We had a 360 degree view of Sydney and the older two plus Mr. PC had tickets to

the Skywalk. Sydney's highest outdoor adventure.

Anytime we visit a tower I always go back and forth on

if we should visit it during the day or the night.

I love the night view, but the daytime view can be just as amazing.

While these three did the 60 minute Skywalk

This little guy did a 4D roller coaster and had some ice cream.

It's things like this that make the age difference hard.

Sweet Boy would have been the first one out the door on the Skywalk, but he 

did not meet the age requirement.

You are not able to take a phone or camera out on the walk, so we got

the photo pass that was the add-on to get some photos.

For 60 minutes the three of them walked on the highest outdoor viewpoint (268m) in this city, with the CBD directly beneath their feet. They all enjoyed it!

 

I took a few more pictures before we headed off to our next spot.

The last stop of the day was the St. Mary's Cathedral

   Catholic church's are always beautiful.

 

I could spend hours looking around and taking

it all in. It's always so peaceful.

When we walked out of the cathedral we were

greeted with this amazing view!

We made our way back to the hotel and grabbed dinner

in the club lounge before calling it a night.

We had a fun-filled day and tomorrow was going to 

be another jammed packed day.
