Seagulls modeled at Sydney Harbour

Inspired by 10 impressive photos of modern architecture of @DanniS I would like to share a few shots I took at Sydney in 2015. Sydney, in many people opinion is a beautiful town and a dream place to go.

I do not object, when I decided to go to Australia, Sydney came to my mind first. So, I only went to Sydney and Melbourne for my 5days in Australia.

About seagulls, I found them interesting. They live freely with human, not only here in Australia, I saw the same thing in New Zealand.

In these photos below, I amazed just how coincident it was that seagulls lined up in my frame while I enjoyed my solo trip in Sydney.

Highlight of activities in Sydney*:* many activities ones can do here are:

  • Stroll around the opera house for the day,
  • Try walk on the Harbour Bridge, or take the ferry to go under and the Opera House view,
  • Meet street performers of Aboriginal group,
  • The garden is few meters walk from the Opera House,
  • Visit the Sydney aquarium,
  • Try Sydney sky tower,
  • Try boat tour around the opera house and under the bridge,
  • Walk around Chinatown and sitting at Darling Harbour.
  • There are many restaurants around the complex

_ @PaulPavlinovich thank you for your comment. I haven’t done much since I was solo. I was strolling around the opera house for the day, enjoying the view and communicating with some cruise passengers, talked to the street performers of Aboriginal group, enjoyed Sydney aquarium, ate out with a friend at Thai restaurant, walked pass the Chinatown and sitting at Darling Harbour. Opera House for its unique design and Sydney aquarium are the highlights since they are new for me._

“I haven’t done much” followed by a respectable list of things done. I’m glad you enjoyed visiting our country @Sophia_Cambodia it may be a while before we’re able to travel again.

_ @PaulPavlinovich hahaa, right, you pointed out well. I haven’t thought about it when I answered you but then memory is back. It is such nostalgia to think about travel. Oh, I completely forgot - the aerial view above Sydney is one of the most beautiful scene I have ever seen on any city._

  • @AdamGT what a clever remark! I haven’t really thought about that until you pointed out. Yes, I enjoyed it a lot. Sadly, I was not brave enough to walk on the bridge and I did not get a chance to experience the sky tower.*

It looks like you had a busy and great time anyway @Sophia_Cambodia . So often I visit a place and just run out of time to do everything that I wanted or planned to. Do the bridge and sky tower on your next visit :wink:

  • @AdamGT of course, if time and circumstances allow. There are a lot more I wish to see in Australia, including Great Barrier Reef.*

Aerial views are a lot of fun @Sophia_Cambodia if you ever get the opportunity for a doors off helicopter flight do it - they’re not cheap but definitely fun - the video below is one I made flying over New York on a misty day in 2018

Yeah it wasn’t exactly cheap @Sophia_Cambodia but when you travel half way around the world I feel that spending up on a special treat is well worthwhile.
