Now I am sitting on a cafe at the harbor with my
friend, Karoline, and looking at the beautiful view. I can see Sydney’s opera house bathing in the sun with the Sydney city behind. It is nice to sit down for a while. The trip started in Trondheim, and the flight took almost 11 hours. We spend two days in Canberra, before we traveled here to Sydney. We enjoyed the stay in Canberra a lot, but the time went so fast. After all, we did see a lot when we were there. The parliament house was one of the things we visited. There was a guide that followed us around, and believe it or not the parliament is built in 1927. The same year that Canberra did get the big proud of being Australia’s capital. I must tell the capital was beautiful with the Molonglo River that cut’s the city in two. The city looks like a big park, with small lakes. It’s a must to see this beautiful piece of work.
After a long night with pa
rtying, we decided that we had to go to a quiet place. The old man in the reception at the hotel, recommended the national botanical garden. The garden is located at the foot of Black Mountain. It is one of the greatest gardens in the world. You can find all the flowers that exist in Australia in that garden, it’s just amazing. It was like a fairytale walking around, we went through a rainforest and mountain areas with special climate zones. The flowers and the nature made such an impression that it was impossible to not love it. The time went so fast, so we went back to the hotel and changed clothes before we went to Canberra stadium to watch Brumbies play a rugby match against Canberra Raiders. Both teams are well known in Australia, so it was a match about Australia’s proud on Canberra stadium. Canberra stadium are mostly used to play rugby and the league in Australia are playing there. The match ended 62-62, and it was a funny experience for us who are BIG rugby fans. So now we are sitting her at the café, where we are going to eat before we take a taxi to Sydney’s opera house.
