Lucky number Two

Consecutive posts, I must be sick! Luckily enough, the hostile I am/was staying at has free Internet, so you are benefiting. Today I woke up early and checked out of my room. Doing this you can leave your bags in the main office, but still have access to the hostile and its features, such as restrooms, showers, laundry and Internet. Good process! Anyways, so I am back at it. Once I checked out, I set off on foot with a map, my camera and a water bottle. I walked for about 3 hours, checking things out. I was able to see SO much of Sydney today. I walked around Darling Harbo(u)r, checked out the Pymont Bridge near there. Then I hiked quite a ways away to the famous Sydney Harbor Bridge which is near the Sydney Opera House. I was over taken more by the Opera House, but being able to see and take pictures of both of them is awesome! When I saw them both, I received a huge sense of cultural respect. I had to just sit and take it all in. I wish I could post a couple of the pictures I took, I was really happy with the way they turned out, which doesn't' happen too often. On my way back I felt compelled to get my special order (Raspberry Mocha) at Starbucks. This was the first Starbucks I have seen since I left the LA Airport, so it put a smile on my face. On the walk back I walked down Pitt Street. This is the high end business district of Sydney. In a pair of cargo shorts, a blue t shirt, flat bottom shoes, shaved head and a camera, I was out of place walking by designer stores like Dolce and Cabana, Prada, Gucci, Versaci, etc. Pretty much you name it, it is on Pitt Street. I can think of a few females who would have had a great time playing Barbi there. From there I continued walking and got to see the Sydney Tower. They do a good job of blocking it from the public view with other buildings and expect you to take their expensive tour. Riding up in an elevator doesn't sound oh so exciting for their prices, I may change my mind though, I'm sure the view is unbelievable.

As for tomorrow I think I am going to check out the markets. They sell everything you could think of there. Not that I am going to buy anything really, just cool to check out each city's markets. I know of a couple the surrounding parks that look really good on the map that I am going to check out. I'm sure I'll visit the bridge and opera house again! As for now, it is tucker(food) time!!
