Around Circular Quay

The famous Sydney Opera House
Rainy day
Industrial-looking area at the Rocks
This kind of city sightseeing buses seems to be everywhere (I saw the same designs when i was in Europe too)
The Sydney Harbour Bridge viewed from the Opera House

We didn't get to see any show so this is as far in as we got in the SOH
Some of you might know that my family took a trip to Australia recently for a post-graduation trip/visitation to some friends and family. Our main destination was Brisbane because that is where the friends whom we knew well are at and where our flight tickets went but we took five days to visit Sydney, where my cousin and her family lives. Even though most of the days were rainy while we were in Sydney, it was still a beautiful city and I am so thankful for my time there (being able to experience the place and spending time with my cousin's family). Here are a few photos of our walk around Circular Quay, seeing the Sydney Opera House, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and walking around the Rocks.
