• Bridge walk

    October 13 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 61 °F

    We had a nice foot break and decided we needed to get to the Sydney Harbor Bridge tonight.

    About 15 minutes away. Why not? Theme of the day.

    We meandered our way to the bridge. This city has perfect signage in terms of finding where you need to go.. I'm a millennial so I Google map everything. Erik is ancient so he goes off where the northern star is in relation to Capricorn 😆 just kidding! He is actually annoyingly (in a loving way) good at finding his way.

    We found the bridge stairs and after walking up too many stairs, we walked to the South Tower to take pictures.

    Then we decided to walk halfway across. Would you believe it was not windy at all? Odd, right? I expected a lot of wind but it was quite calm. Chilly, but calm.

    We found the halfway point which is marked with a yellow metal thing on the ground. There is also a small bench at that location. Super small. We took some photos and headed back to the South Tower to take more photos since it was darker out. We watched the scenery for a while and then headed back to the airbnb.

    We heard some commotion as we were walking down the bridge stairs and saw some guys playing soccer. We watched for about 5 minutes .

    Then we really started back to our place. We walked through the Rocks and found some neat areas that are showcased as they show off the original aspects of this part of the city. Very cool.

    We found a convenience store and we walked around inside of it. We like to see the different things different areas sell. So many Tim Tams here in different flavors but Erik says we are traveling tomorrow and can buy it later. He is right.

    We kept wandering closer towards our Airbnb and like Sydney pros, we found our way without Google maps. Bosses.

    We decided to go into the souvenir shop next to our Airbnb. Just to look around. Everything is expensive so we are hoping when we get further outside of Sydney that things will get cheaper.

    We finished our day with 18830 steps.
