Sydney, Australia- by bus

Sydney, Australia- by bus

Bill Terry

This is the first of three posts from our two days in Sydney.

– By bus
– By boat- coming soon
– Opera House closeup and leaving- coming soon

Sydney by bus

First stop, the Domain Sydney- a nice park with the most photographed scenic in town, and maybe in the country

Interesting factoid: L01 and L02 are STOL amphibious assault ships repurposed by the Australian Navy as helo ships. At least one is always in the harbor in case a Very Important Person in the government or visitor is in need of a helicopter because there are no helicopter landing areas on land in Sydney.

St. Vincents Hospital

Street scenes, still through a bus window

Under the bridge, looking the other direction

Note to city planners: install more signs here; drivers are complaining they are running out of things to read while waiting for the light to change.

New South Wales Art Museum, ‘Maman’ the spider.

Art of another type

Mad Monkey

Tat and a trim at the same place

Daddy’s and…

Mamma’s…

with Coca-Cola above it all and…

down there represented.

Even the street signs are polite in Sydney.

No comment that wouldn’t sound ridiculously immature.

A family joke

Scary
(no extra charge for the reflection of our bus)

This way to the beach

(world famous) Bondi Beach

A National Surfing Reserve is actually a thing?

Ruth rescued Wilson from a difficult incident involving his thong speedo, a women’s rugby team, and a gallon of marshmallow fluff he had.

Travis Kelce’s girlfriend was in town to do a series of concerts. The maker of Twisties, a popular Australian chip, united two “cultural icons”; thus, Twifties appeared in the sky over Sydney.
