Sydney – In Photos

Thanks for bearing with my lack of posts recently.  But, here are photos from my time in Sydney.  I was completely impressed and I think it has to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

Searching for inspiration

When I started this blog, the main thing I wanted to do was write in-depth on each place I’d been to.  As I sit here trying to find the next place I want to write about, I’ve realized a couple of things…

Rude cities? Or specific experiences?

I read an article this morning which listed the world’s rudest cities.  I thought it was a pretty fun read and it got me thinking about which places I’ve been to that I would consider to be rude.

Before I dive in, let me preface by saying that I don’t think of any cities as being rude…but there are specific experiences with rudeness!

There’s something about a first time

It’s been really great writing about my trip to Australia, but I have to be honest…I have a bit of writer’s block as it relates to Sydney and have decided to take a bit of a break before getting back to it.  So, what’s with the post title?

Well, there’s always something about a first time that changes things.  The first I’m referring to here is my first time in Europe.

(Warning:  This one is a bit deeper than usual!)

What is a trip to Australia without seeing some wildlife?

Probably still a great one, but it would definitely be incomplete!

I was really looking forward to my Saturday in Perth as it was the day I was going to see my first kangaroo. Well, I finally did see that kangaroo, but it was only the beginning.

In an earlier post, I said that quokkas were the cutest creatures I’d ever seen.  No disrespect to the quokka, but that was before I saw a koala in person!  Here was my itinerary for the day…

I’m usually quite adventurous when it comes to food in other countries, but I just could not get myself to eat kangaroo!  They are just too cute and too exotic for me to eat.  But, I was in Australia…so, what then?

No worries…the food in Perth was fantastic!  There are very many options and I wasn’t disappointed once.  Also, the seafood is great as you’d expect for a city so close to the ocean.

Perth has a number of different suburbs that are all close and easily accessible with some great places to eat.  Here’s a rundown…

And…I’m home.

I had an amazing time in Australia, but after 20 plus hours of flying…I’m home.  I feel like I’ve been gone months, but in reality it was only 2 weeks.
