Iconic Sydney Photos

I could flood my blog with pictures of Sydney for the next month, but honestly I think you'd get sick of them after a while!  Instead, I have gone through my photos, and I am posting my favorites.  Believe it or not, I've got over 500 pictures of just the Sydney Opera House.  So, I'm going to attempt to narrow things down somewhat!

Look at this tree! Royal Botanic Gardens.

Sydney Observatory. See that ball on the roof? It drops at 1 pm every day.

Hey, look at the lion and unicorn on the post office!

These cockatiels are everywhere.

Manly Beach!  Love these beaches!

 More beach!

View from the Toranaga Zoo across the harbor to the Opera House.

The Rocks

The first part of Sydney developed by the English settlers, The Rocks is a very old, very well kept up historic gem just up the hill from Central Quay.  Beautiful cobblestone streets, old brick buildings, small streets, tiny courtyards, and historic sites make this one of the most memorable walks!  Not only did we explore the Rocks, we walked across the Bridge and explored the Observatory. 
Below are some random pictures that I took while roaming through The Rocks.
