Hey,

We have had a great few days in Sydney! The first day we went on a 3 hour walking tour and got taken around all the sights and told about them! after this we went exploring on our own! it was so wierd seeing the Opera house up close, it looks so different from how it looks on the tv!

The next day we went to Wildlife World and the Aquarium, they were both very good and saw loads of fish and animals! we saw a wombat which is the one australian animal we hadnt yet seen here! We went to Paddys market after that, where there was a lot of chinese people selling cheap souveniours!! then we went up the sydney tower and looked out at the views whilst the sun was setting!!

On Sunday we had a day trip to the blue mountains! they were spectacular! and we spent the day going around and seeing different parts of it! was a lot of walking up and down steep steps, some which were very hard to get up only having short legs!!

On Monday we climbed the Harbour Bridge, unfortunately it rained the whole day and we got soaked whilst doing it!! but it was still amazing! lots of steps, but didnt feel as high as it was when we were right at the top! got given a free group picture but its hard to see who people are coz we are all so covered up!

Today we got the ferry to Manly and went to aquarium world there but it wasnt as good as the aquarium! we then spent the rest of the day sitting on the beach doing nothing and enjoying the sun!!

our legs are aching loads now from all the walking so we are looking forward to sitting on the bus all day tomorrow at the start of our 3 day trip down to Melbourne!!

Will update again when we get there and have more exciting stuff to share!
