We spent a great day touring Sydney on the “Sydney Explorer” hop-on hop off tour bus with Ma en Pa who left Norfolk Island with us and are here in Sydney until a day after we leave.<\/p>\n
We got to see all the iconic Sydney sights : Darling Harbour; Sydney Bridge; the botanical gardens and of course the Sydney Opera house. The gardens were interesting as we got to see hundreds of “flying foxes”, bats with wingspans of up to 1.5 m, hanging from the trees.<\/p>\n
Sydney could certainly make a claim to be the Paris of the southern hemisphere \u2026 love was definitely in the air \u2026 literally! \ud83d\ude00
\nAs we sat on the top deck of the bus we watched a sign writer aircraft carve out the message “Marry me Jen?” above the towering skyscrapers of central Sydney \u2026 we didn’t have to wait long for Jen’s answer \u2026 5 minutes later the aircraft wrote out “She said yes!”
\nIn addition we saw at least half a dozen weddings, receptions and photo shoots going on around the city.<\/p>\n
In the evening we headed down to ” The Rocks”, the oldest part of Sydney and site of the first convict landings in 1788, for a meal.<\/p>\n
