Diary of a man down under - Day 13

By neil, 1 March, 2011

Last day in Sydney at an end! Another day spent mostly on foot. My MyMulti bus/train/ferry ticket ran out yesterday. 7-day ticket is $41 for the 1 zone. A day ticket is $20! Had a walk up to Hyde Park to visit the Australia Museum, then the Australian Currency and Banknote Museum (or some name like that) and finally the Crime and Justice Museum. Had a walk through the Royal Botanic Gardens hoping to get sunset at the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Lots of bats in the gardens, and pretty active in daylight too! Sadly, the weather wasn't really being helpful with lots of cloud; and the sunset wasn't really in the right place for any good photos.

Anyway, off to Brisbane tomorrow. 15 and a half hour journey by train and coach. For some reason the train terminates early and the last 3 or 4 hours are by coach. Still, looking forward to a day of doing nothing but sitting on my backside with the feet up!
