First day in Sydney, we had a half day sightseeing in this city. And I just posted before.
Second day, on 3rd in September. We went to Taronga zoo to watch both the bird show and the seal show.
The bird show.
This parrot picked up the garbage and then abandoned to a trash box.
Then the seal show.
During the show, my wife got wet by the waves the seals made.
Then we went to Sydney Tower Eye.
Sydney Tower Eye.
We looked St.Mary cathedral from the tower.
Then we took a dinner at Cockle Bay Wharf.
Hot & Cold seafood platter for two.
Third day, on 4th in September. We went to Blue mountains by a chartered car.
Jamison Valley.
Three sisters rocks.
Fourth day, on 5th in September, we went Wild Life(Zoo) at first.
Waiting for a long time, we could see the Koala who opened the eyes.
Tasmanian devil.
Then we watched Andre Rieu cinema concert at the National Theater.
The cinema started from one pm and ended 4pm.
I found small part of the concert from the You Tube.
Then we got on a Sunset Cruising ship.
Captain Cook Cruiser.
Harbor Bridge.
We watched fire work displays.
We came home last night.

What a marvelous trip you had in Sydney! It has been in my bucket list to visit this interesting place someday and see the cute and lazy Koala Bears. I think most spectators who watched the live performances at their Sea World would be intentionally drenched as part of their memorable fun. You guys must have sat at the front VIP rows.
ReplyDeleteYour trip was really well planned as I could see how you could squeeze so many interesting places for each day. I remember my parents also snapped photos of the 2 sisters rock and that was long ago. Your night certainly ended well with the fireworks display and I love that to call it a day.
I just go back from Manila after a week there and was down with food poisoning for 2 days. Today i have recovered and back to blogging.
Dear Twilight Man.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment. It's nice you recovered today.
豪州と呼んだ方がより親近感が持てるオーストラリアは 大らかなお国柄のようで私も好きです。
ReplyDelete大自然、動物、街、人々・・・ 旅での出会いは一期一会ゆえ より貴重に思えますね。
楽しい旅をお過ごしのご様子。 つづきを 楽しみにしています!
Dear Anzu sama.
Deleteこんばんは。ありがとうございます。私にとっては、シドニーは二度目のステイなので、妻のガイド役に徹しました。喜んで呉れたかどうか。 次回は最後です。お楽しみに。
Sydney is a pretty magical place.

Hello, what a fun trip. I love all the animals, especially the koala. The views of the city, bridge and the fireworks are all lovely. Beautiful photos. Have a happy week ahead!
ReplyDeleteDear Eileen.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
What a great tour of Sydney! The animal shows remind me of the San Diego Zoo and Sea World, we saw those a lot when we lived there, except they didn't have Tasmanian devils as far as I can remember. The seafood platter for 2 looks really yummy, and what a beautiful sunset!
ReplyDeleteDear Hannah.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment. I want to go San Diego in a future. I saw many wood made Tasmanian devil boards when I was in Tasmania. But I could not see the devil. But it's very easy to see the devil here.
Looks like a fun filled trip. I love the photo of the Harbor Bridge.

Deleteこんにちは。ありがとうございます。 ここにきて疲れがでてしまいました。
What a whirlwind tour! You both must have been tired by evening. I enjoyed the photos from your visit. I think I would love to see the Jamison Valley.
ReplyDeleteDear Barb.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
I enjoyed your day, thank you very much. The Tasmanian Devil does not look at all like the one that was on the Bugs Bunny Cartoon Show. :-)

素敵な奥様へのバースデープレゼントですね。オーストラリアならヨーロッパより飛行時間も短くていい選択だったと思います。盛りだくさんのイベントと観光であっという間に日が過ぎたのでは?これを機会に奥様も海外旅行好きになられたのではないでしょうか。あのシーフード、お二人で食べきれました?
ReplyDeleteDear Yoko sama.
Deleteこんにちは。 ありがとうございます。 また来年になったらどうするか考えます。 海鮮プレートは食べきれませんでした。
An amazing trip for you two! You packed a lot of activities into your time there. Sydney seems to be a wonderful big city!

ReplyDeleteUma viagem encantadora.
Gostei muito das aves e do zoo da vida selvagem.
Nunca vi um coala de perto, nem imaginava como era um demônio da Tasmânia que tem jeito de ser muito bravo e selvagem, com enormes dentes.
Amei as paisagens!!!
Uma boa semana, cheia de surpresas agradáveis!
Beijinhos.

Dear Magia.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
Obviously you enjoyed Australia, Minoru!
ReplyDeleteBut I was a little shocked to see André Rieu in your post, a dutch musician, that is very popular in Germany as well... ;-)
Dear Uwe.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment. What kind of shock did you have? We enjoyed his live concert in Tokyo more than 10 years ago.
I would think Germany people do not like his performance and female members costumes.
I would think normal concert should be hold in a indoor concert hall. But I think if he were a German musician, he could not do this kind of music.
BTW, I like his " Second Waltz" music by Shostakovich.
Yes, indeed, the joky "shock" is called "André Rieu"... ;-)
DeleteNo harm meant, Minoru-san! Honestly I was more surprised than shocked to see him in your post, because I didn't expect to see this Dutch musician (no, I don't really like him and his tpye of music) in a post of a Japanese travelling to Australia!
All the best from Germany,
Uwe.
...
Dear Uwe.
DeleteThank you. This New Year I watched a TV program which was a real time New Year Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra Concert, conducted by Zubin Mehta. How about Indian conductor?
Much better... ;-)
DeleteDear Uwe.
DeleteThank you.
Wonderful scenery and shots.
ReplyDeleteDear Fiona.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
It sounds like you had a great day in our beautiful city.
ReplyDeleteDear Lyn.

So looking at the photos i was like " i like this one", " oh, this one's better" then i ended up "OKKK, fine, it's like OMG! these are like really good stuffs". Thanks for sharing and inspiring us to travel as well Minoru! :) I want more from Ausie!

なんだかとても懐かしいです。オーストラリアとNew Zealandへ3週間の旅をした想い出がよみがえってきました。この動物園にも行きましたよ。私たちには今までにない大旅行。貯金が底をつくのではないかと思いました。 西海岸からは14時間もかかるので、滅多に行けないまさに地の果てに気がしますが、、、斎藤さんたちすごい!うらやましいです。
