They thought it would take them three years and $7 million to build the Sydney Opera House. It took them sixteen years and $102 million. But it's pretty much stayed the same since it opened around 40 years ago, so I guess they got their money's worth.
Manly was named after some good looking aboriginal guys. No, I didn't see any.
Sydney's been interesting. Not, as my mother claimed, like Canada from the 1970's. I even understood what most people were saying. I tried some Vegemite (as I suspected, it's not for me), I ate some kangaroo, I got to lie on one of the most famous beaches in the world, I rode ferries almost daily.
I would write more but I have to find a bank machine to reset my credit card pin, and then we have to head to the airport to start the next part of the adventure. See you in Christchurch.
