Sydney Tower and Darling Harbour

Sunday was one of those clear blue sky, warm Australian winter days. We all headed off in the Zafira in the direction of the Sydney Aquarium.

We travelled through a very long motorway tunnel and came out across the harbour bridge. The car park was somewhat run down, but it led out on to the modern monorail system. Seeing that the train would take us passed the Sydney Tower it was decided that today would be a good day to go up. The views, as from all city towers, is awesome.


It was a short walk to the Aquaruim from here. However, the queue for the aquarium was one hour long. Instead we explored Darling Harbour. It was thronged with people enjoying the sun. It was real sun trap set out for leisure. The main bridge is a swing bridge and you can just make ou the central pillar in the picture.


Zoe enjoyed the roundabout and they both appreciated a run in the play area.

We ended the time in the food area and set back home, starting our journey on the monorail.
