Bondi Beach

Tina, Chelsea, Sam and I are spending the weeked at the beach. The weather has been amazing! It's supposed to get hot today.

Sydney Day 4-Koalas

Through the program I'm in we got free tickets to one of three attractions in Sydney. I chose the Sydney Wild Animal Park b/c I heard you could hold Koalas. They lied to me. You could just see them up close. They're so cute though.

Sydney Day 4

Tina and I had to book hostels b/c ours was full. This is basically what we looked like traveling around to get to our next place to sleep. We then went tot he Harbor bridge. You can go to the top of one of the Pylons instead of actually climbing the bridge. It's $10 as opposed to $150 to climb. I feel like it was a nice way to get a feel for whether or not I wanted to go on the bridge. Maybe I'll do it at some point... You get a good feel for how big Sydney is from up here.

Sydney Day 3

Tina and I walked all over the city again. At night we met up with our new friends, Clare (UK), Chelsea (Canada) and Sam (Michigan). You would think my addiction to texting would stop in a new country, but I made friends right away, so the texting never stopped :)

Sydney Day 2 dinner

Tina and I cooking dinner at our hostel.

Sydney Day 2

Tina and I walked all over the city again. Above is a photo of Hyde Park. We also took a tour of the Opera House. It is so beautiful! The picture of the toilet paper is from the bathroom in the Opera House :) and the photo above that is an area of the building affectionately referred to as "the cleavage". At the bottom is Tina witht he city, me and the Harbor Bridge (I wanted that picture b/c my dad always talks about how you can climb it), and the opera house.

Sydney Day 1

I arrived in Sydney Monday afternoon. I checked into my hostel, took a quick shower, and hit the ground running. My friend Tina is in Australia also, so she planned to come to Sydney to meet up with me. We walked all over the city. Above is Sydney harbor and Darling Harbor. The weather was warm and sunny!
