S+E Walking Tour Sydney


The next day we took a walking tour of Sydney--Shelley and Erik style.  Got a chance to walk around the Botanical Gardens, Hyde Park, an awesome aquatic center, Mrs. McQuaries (sp?) chair where her husband built her a park to enjoy the area (must be nice), Luna Park (Sydneys white trash equivalent to the Jersey Shore), a very old and very cool outdoor pool used for the Olympics and ended the day with a ferry back to Circular Quay and having some drinks as we walked back to the hotel.  I would like to add, we chose not to pay the $200 each for the bridge walk and instead walked across for free with both our left and right feet.  Beyond our free sample of frozen yogurt in the food court, we treated ourselves to dinner out at the popular Chat tai.  Another unforgettable night in Sydney.
Great pic of the Opera House and the Bridge

We took a rest on Mrs. McQuaries chair before heading across the bridge

How am I supposed to BASE jump from the bridge with all the fences.  They did have a dedicated bike lane which Shelley loved
Incredible Olympic training pool right next to the bridge, the harbor and Luna Park
They swim here all year long...pretty cool stuff and the pool is kept at 25 degrees Celsius

Where in the world is Shelley?? Check out little Shelley posing under the "typical" Australian looking teeth...
