Sydney, part one

The final three and a half days of our trip were spent in Sydney. There is so much to say, this post will be split into two parts.

We visited the Featherdale Wildlife Park, which houses a sizable collection of Australian fauna.

Imagine the sweat, rolling down the back of your neck, minutes into your staring contest with this sinister Barking Owl.

A very family-friendly place. There are a number of animals you can feed and hold, and have your picture taken with.

On another day, we met with my sweetie’s cousin’s family, who took us on a hiking tour around Sydney Harbor.

Here’s the famous Sydney Opera House, which was swarming with location photo-taking and selfie-making tourists.

Across the harbor is the Sydney Bridge, on which we saw several groups of bridge climbers.

While traversing a public park, we saw this ibis, nonchalantly walking by.
