A day in Sydney

We hit the ground running. We arrived at 6am and checked into our hotel and got cleaned up then headed out on the town.... since I knew the kids were jet lagged I just thought we would walk. Its of course raining so we got to test out those new rain jackets! First stop was circular quay (pronounced Key) for a better view of the opera house.

We were soaked so wanted to go inside and we were right next to the Museum of Contemporary Art so we went in. London's favorite was the sea star mobil. And jo loved the "abc" lights.


After the museum it was lunch time so we headed to The Rocks area... 

Got myself a great sandwich called "thanksgiving". it was great! We joined a local family here and the kids had fun trying to "fix" the others accents. LOL 

Wanted to keep us up and moving so we decided to hike up the pylon on the Harbor Bridge. Around 400 steps. They did great! Nice views on top and it was only drizzling by then. 

 View of the other pylon so you can see how high we walked up.


 You can hike up on TOP of the bridge. I would have loved to do it but you have to be 10yrs old to do it. So we just watched a group go up and over from inside the pylon.
Once we got back down we walked over the bridge and back. Jo got tired on the back part (she had walked over 5 miles at that point!). So we headed home and were sleeping by 7pm. :D
