holiday in Sydney, Australia…
February 25th, 2011 by BLOGitse received 25 Comments »photos of the weekend #8 / holiday in Sydney, Australia
Hi everyone!
Greetings from SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, where we’re on holiday for a couple of weeks.
We’ve been very busy and haven’t had
time to shoot ‘Sydney pictures’
but more coming in my future postings 
Please don’t hate me if I don’t have time to visit your blogs -
I promise to be better blogger when back in Casa!
We flew from Casa to Abu Dhabi – about 8 hrs and
from Abu Dhabi to Sydney about 14 hrs
by Etihad, UAE
The Noisy Miner (Manorina melanocephala)
These are REALLY noisy!
The ANZAC Bridge or Anzac Bridge
“The bridge was given its current name on Remembrance Day in 1998 to honour
the memory of the soldiers of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC)
who served in World War I.
An Australian Flag flies atop the eastern pylon and
a New Zealand Flag flies atop the western pylon.”
I love this palm tree!
Have a great weekend!

Holidays are for fun, not for blogging or commenting!!!
Long flights, but worth while, I guess.

Thanks Susu!
It’s hard to find privacy, own time – now it’s 6:40 am – I have 20 mins time for myself before the house is full of life again.
Gotta go – online banking, have a great weekend!
Oooh! One of my favourite cities ever! Have fun there!
By the way, the brigde looks quite like the one in Heinola :0

Oz looks beautiful, the shadows abundant. I am partial to the beautiful bridge, the soaring towers so stunning we need to remind drivers to watch the road and not look up…The airplane cabin shadow is great, the feeling that you are traveling to a sunny place – in the air and on the ground!

I love seeing cities I know (even if only slightly) through the eyes of a visitor. Hope you get to Melbourne
Don’t stress about not visiting other blogs, just enjoy yourself!

Welcome to Australia, I truly hope your visit remained a surprise!
Your photos are great but I must admit that it is strange to see such familiar sights in them. Have a great holiday and I can’t wait to see your next images of Sydney.
