Initial Sydney Walk About

With the uncertainty of the weather overnight, we decided not to take the hop-on, hop-off bus trip around the city. We ended up taking the 555 free bus down to the Rocks area to check it out.  The Rocks is the old historical part of Sydney, dating back to the early 1800s. It's down at the harbour, where the famous opera house and bridge are located.  We also popped into Government House to pay our respects to the GG, but he was out. Here are a few pictures:
