Australia, Sydney!


Now we are sitting at a café again, but now we are hiding from the sun. It’s so hot her, we are just praying for some wind. But it doesn’t seem like it is coming. Instead I can tell you about when we were at the Sydney’s opera house earlier. The first thing you see is how marvelous the building is. The shell-sections looks like a fleet of white sailing ship that you often see in Sydney’s harbor, and it is so big that they used 1 056 000 white glazed granite tiles to cover it. The opera house is so big that there is almost 1000 rooms included five theater halls, five exercise studios, two main halls, four restaurants, six bars and numerous of souvenir shops. We was so blown away of that beautiful building that we was just walking around and admire the incredible piece of work, but we managed to observe that the opera house did get completed in 1973. It is on the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Thousands of people visit the building every year and the architect was Jørn Utzon from Denmark. So now we are sitting at the café and just relaxing before we are going to Bondi Beach. The beach is lying seven kilometers from Sydney city and is one of the most famous beaches in the world. There are thousands of visitors every year that is enjoying the stay at the one kilometer long beach. The beach is divided in two. The southern side is rated as seven of ten, because it is so dangerous. It is the underwater currents that make it so dangerous, but the northern side is just rated to four. So we are looking forward to lie on the beach and tan for some hours.

Love from me!
