The Opera House

 

Yesterday was spent around the Opera House area, not because I like it so much, but I couldn’t walk any further. Nevermind, there’s always tomorrow. My legs seem better now:) More walking tomorrow… to get rid of the rest of the dozen of KKs inside me.

 

Here are some photos taken around the Opera House. The area will be closed from public from today onwards till 10th due to APEC, where “21 GREAT LEADERS will meet in ONE GREAT CITY” (that’s what it says on the posters) and will hole up in the Opera House. Bush is included as well, although I’m not sure who he’s representing. I heard there will be demonstrations and protests as usual. Will check it out tomorrow.

Grounded

 

Saturday went past really quickly. Had dim sum with sis and hubby, then dinner with her in-laws. In between, we managed to visit some markets nearby and also visited the first Krispy Kreme outlet in Sydney, located near Blackwood. I heard people from other parts of Sydney used to drive hours just to grab a few dozen back. To keep up with tradition, I got myself a dozen as well:) That pretty much summed up a lazy Saturday. Had some nice night activities before heading for bed:)

 

Starting my running routine today after coming back from injury (from last sunday’s soccer) was a bad idea. After the run, I felt a little strain on my knee. By the time I was done with my exterior tour of Opera House, I could hardly walk. Cut short my City tour and went back home to nurse my sore knee. I think I’ll have to stay home tomorrow till it gets better, no more running for the rest of the trip.

 

Here are some photos from Friday… more to come tomorrow since I’ll be home, replying emails… editing, etc.  Finally, the Harbour Bridge (why is this bridge so famous?),

A little more of today – Sydney Day #2

 

As mentioned in my previous post, there’s just no way I can get the bridge into the frame:) So I saw it my own way. Here are more from today’s trip. I just hope I won’t need to carry so much for the next few days… it’s abit tough on my aging body… uncle already leh (maybe not, since he won’t call me till he can talk… buying a few more months of “youth”:P).
