Sydney
7 de septiembre de 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
Very early start today, leaving Mark's at 5:00 to get to Brisbane airport for our flight to Sydney.
31k steps later, we're both knackered after 1 flight, 7 train journeys and 1 ferry crossing!
The city is incredible, a mix of New York and London - super clean and tidy too. Public transport has been a breeze and silly cheap. To see the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge- two of the most recognisable structures in the world - is pretty surreal. Love this city already 😍.Leer más

Sydney by night
7 de septiembre de 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌙 20 °C
We walked over the Harbour Bridge tonight and took in the spectacular skyline of Circular Quay, including the Opera House. Got a ferry back and then another train to within 15 minutes of our AirBnB. On the walk back, we stopped by a place that specialises in pies - specifically a pie topped with mash, mushy peas and gravy. They call them Tiger Pies and we can both confirm that they are goddamn delicious 😋 🤣Leer más

Katoomba - Blue Mountains
9 de septiembre de 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌙 11 °C
Up early (again!), walked up the road to a local market for a Danish pastry and a coffee. Then jumped on a train out of the city to Katoomba which is 2 hours out West. Arrived at Katoomba and headed for Scenic World, where we rode the world's steepest train journey into the forest at the bottom of the Blue Mountains. Had an hours walk around the forest and then rode the cable car back to the top. Got some lunch then got back on the cable car to go back down and finally returned to the top on the steep train again! 2 hours back to Sydney then took a ferry to the other side of the harbour and had a fab curry. Full on day again but so much to see and do in a little time 😁Leer más

Red Baron Flight - Sydney
10 de septiembre de 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
Wow, what a day! I headed out West from Sydney this morning to an aerodrome where I was to fly in a sports biplane over Sydney Harbour. I was strapped into the biplane but, unfortunately, it wouldn't start. The pilot gave me 2 choices - come back when it's fixed (er, not much chance of that!) or have shorter flight in their Extreme Extra 320 stunt plane! Of course, I agreed to fly in this one (which happens to be the most extreme stunt aircraft in all of Australia). The flight over Sydney was just incredible, but the aerobatics we did over the sea just up from Bondi Beach were well, insane!Leer más

Bondi Beach and Tide Pools
11 de septiembre de 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C
After a lovely breakfast in a local cafe I got the train to Bondi Junction and then a bus to Bondi Beach. The public transport here is superb - very cheap, clean and virtually no waiting around for the next bus/train.
Had a walk along the seafront and part of the beach (purely so I can say I walked on Bondi Beach 😆). At the far end of the beach is an area of tide pools made of volcanic rock which was full of holes and channels for the sea to pour into as it comes in. I was gagging for a drink as I walked along here and then I remembered I put a freezing cold af beer in my bag - result! It was pretty special to be sat there with a cold beer watching the surf and the pools gradually filling up.Leer más

Sydney Botanical Gardens
11 de septiembre de 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌙 15 °C
After my trip to Bondi Beach, I walked back into the city through the botanical gardens. Like everything else in Sydney, the gardens are immaculate. My photos don't do the trees and tropical plants justice. It really is an incredible place 🌴.
The gardens offer some amazing views over Sydney Harbour, and I took the opportunity to take some arty photos of the bridge and opera house. The view from Circular Quay over towards these iconic landmarks is the most beautiful that I have ever seen that's been made by man.
As the sun set, I took the ferry over to Manly Beach, which is one of Sydneys northern beaches. I didn't stay long, but what I saw was stunning and probably bigger and more popular than Bondi.
This is my last footprint about Sydney, and I'm genuinely sad to be leaving - there's so much more to see. I absolutely loved this wonderful city ❤️.Leer más

Australia (Steve Irwin) Zoo
13 de septiembre de 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
I'm back im Brisbane for a day so I got the bus up to Australia Zoo which was founded by the Irwin family. It's almost a shrine to Steve Irwin as his face is EVERYWHERE! The whole zoo was immaculately kept with beautiful enclosures and trees everywhere, The show was ok, it was aimed more towards the youngsters in the stadium and not an old git like me 😅. Even so it was an experience to visit the most well known zoo in all of Australia.Leer más

Cairns Harbour & Aquarium
14 de septiembre de 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 26 °C
I arrived in Cairns at about lunchtime today to stunning blue skies and a stiff warm wind. Made my way to my lovely little Airbnb which is a 1940's style 'Queenslander'. I'm on the upper level, which has the look and feel of an old railway signal box. It even comes with a friendly cat and Jack Russell!
I'm getting the hang of buses now and so I got one down into the city and headed straight for the aquarium. It's probably the best one I've ever been too with huge aquariums showing off the fish of the Great Barrier Reef. Most of the photos I took were blurred and the ones that did come out ok don't reflect how beautiful the displays are. The centrepiece was a 40 odd foot tall marine reef aquarium, which I sat in front of for quite some time in awe of the scale of it.
After that, I had a wander around the harbour and grabbed yet another iced coffee (Evie got me into these 😅). It's a pretty cool place this 😀.Leer más

Great Barrier Reef flight
15 de septiembre de 2023 ⋅ 🌬 24 °C
Today, I flew in a sightseeing plane over some of the Great Barrier Reef. On arrival, there were 6 passengers waiting and I was lucky enough to snag the seat up front next to the pilot - very cool! We took off from Cairns airport and flew around 20 minutes to a few of the larger reefs, including Fitzroy Island which is a place for day trips from the harbour here. Again, my photos dont do the beautiful turquoise Coral Sea justice. To see the reef from above was really spectacular 😲.Leer más
