Hello Darling!

Here's a picture of Sydney's skyline taken from Darling Harbour. It's such a great place and I've enjoyed many a happy hour (or ten) here. There is so much to do; The National Maritime Museum, Aquarium, Wildlife World, Chinese gardens, IMAX theatre, numerous restaurants and coffee shops (long live 'Gloria Jeans', boo-hiss to 'Starbucks').
A short walk into the centre of the City and the shopping is awesome. My favourite place to shop is the Queen Victoria Building (not shown). I find it an amazing place, it has four floors packed with individual, unusual shops and the architecture of the building is just fantastic. I bought an authentic 'barmah' leather hat (and no...........it doesn't have corks tied to it, in case you were wondering). I may or may not, depending on how I feel, show you in a later posting.
Here is the same skyline at night.
