South to Sydney! Day 1

From Linda's visit to Australia

As aghast as Kevin and Linda had been about our Friday Bruce highway plan, an even earlier wake up and departure was required for our flight to Sydney. The weekend weather was still grey and a bit rainy - even in NSW. We took a taxi from the airport to our hostel at Darling Harbour: The Woolbrokers. Very nice. (I had stayed there before with Carroll, Karen and Cruz.) And, very convenient to seeing things in the city - which is what we commenced to do.

We saw the "usual":

We discovered something new and very cool. An underground moving sidewalk - a very fast moving underground moving sidewalk - filled with interesting murals and going to the parking garage for the Domain. Not that we had a car nor any desire to see the car park. None the less, totally worth checking out.
