On day 4, we decided to get a 360 degree "bird's eye view" of the city and surrounding area by going up to the 250 m (820 ft) Sydney Tower Eye. On our way we walked passed the Anzac memorial.
Here is where we are headed!
Walking through Hyde Park.
In the Tower. The views were great. Here are a few samples. You can see why ferries are such an important part of their transportation infrastructure.
After the Eye, we decided to head back to Circular Quay and walk across the Harbor bridge. We had more great views of my favorite site in the city!
From there we jumped on a ferry to head back towards Darling Harbor.
We decided to check out the Maritime Museum. We toured three boats on the water in this picture.
We started on the submarine.
I wonder what she sees through the parascope?
Ah, where we started the day!
Then we headed over to the Vampire.
Finally, we went on a replica of Captain Cook's ship that he used when he discovered Australia.
I am not sure Cory could have spent years on this ship hunched over like this!
So much to see and do! We only have a couple more days before we have to head home (but the last day will be a relaxing beach day!).
