Going Out With the Brits

My brit boys came all the way from Salsbury to go on a different tour throughout Australia.  They came and met me at the hotel.  Great chaps if you ask me.  Since they arrived on December 28th they had a chance to scope out the area.  They took me to the famous opera house and bridge.  It was roughly a 10 to 15 minute walk from the hotel.  There were so many people walking around. So much life, the weather was perfect.  When I saw the opera house it was just so surreal to me that I am in Australia.  I thought maybe I was dreaming.  After we went and took some pictures near the opera house we went and met some of their friends at a restaurant/lounge nearby called the Opera House Bar.  They had a large outdoor lounge area where you could sit at tables that overlooked the water.  The breeze felt so good on my skin.  I didn't want to leave.

We stayed at the bar for a couple hours, after that we decided to walk around the area to get ideas of where to go for New Years.  We discovered a lot of places were sold out.  So we decided we were going to just wing it, maybe talk to the locals and see what they could recommend.

Arrival In Sydney, Australia

Well everyone, I finally made it.  I am a little delayed in writing this but hopefully everyone can figure out that I got into Sydney yesterday.  When I got off the plane and went through security I felt so free.  Went straight to the Grand Nat concierge in the airport.  They told me a cab ride would run $50 to downtown Sydney, a train ride would run $17, and a shuttle would run $19.  I chose to do the shuttle that way I could enjoy the view.  I am staying at the Swiss Hotel one of the finest in Sydney and throughout the world.  The hotel looked amazing, they have a beautiful Christmas tree still up in the lobby.  Went up to the business center and checked it out.  The view was incredible from outside the window.  I got to my room and it is sensational as well.  What a treat it is to be here in style!!
