After mondays cloudy weather, myself and beth were looking for some sun, and Sydney did not dissapoint. The very next day the sun was shining so after a long lie in we went to the Tongola zoo which is accross the bay so we had to get a ferry, this provided some good photo spots though. (see atatched)
On wednesday we decided to hit the beach, and headed off to Bondi Beach.
As you see the weather was great. This beach was great but the water is definatly for surfers as i was getting hit by 2m waves (see below pic)
After the beach we went back, showered and got out for a bite to eat, this is the view from the place we had a bite at.
After this we went to the bar called 'Minus 5' little bit decieving as inside its a constant -15 C and so the whole bar is made out of ice, including your glass. You get a coat and gloves when you go in but this only works for about 20 minutes, then your freezing.
Today we went on the tour to the Blue mountains, this had some great views (see below) and after this we went to an old winery for a private wine tasting. this was great and we bought 2 bottles as they dont sell it anywhere else except thier winery.
We went up the steepest railway in the world as well, here is a pic, remember that this pic is taken with the camera actually pointing up about 10-15 degrees above horizontal.
Off shopping tomorrow as it is our last day in sydney, looking forward to the tour as sydney is pretty hectic (same as all cities). Bring on the beaches.
