The next day, we continued our tour to Sydney Harbour bridge, Opera House and Darling Harbour.
I noticed that there were people on top of the bridge and I realized that they were climbers. I was told that the Sydney Harbour Bridge climb tour had been very popular. If you want to join the tour, the price is may be AUD250 or more per person. The tour would be conducted by trained experts and each participant would be be provided with a bridge suit, communication equipment, safety harness, lanyards and headlamp.
The ferry made several brief stops before arriving Darling Harbour. The first stop was this Luna Park - a popular amusement park in Sydney.
Starship Sydney, the largest glass boat for Sydney Harbour cruise offering guests 360 degree panoramic views.
It's my first time seeing a lightship (floating lighthouse). It was built in 1916 and used as a navigational aids when lighthouses could not be built. This on retired in 1985.
As we cruised back to Circular Quay, the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera house came into view .
It's sunset time as we were on our way to our accommodation in Rockdale suburb near Sydney airport.
Dinner was at an Aussie outback bar. The menu consisted of mainly meat dishes but they also served healthy food like the avocado chicken breast special.
