I made it to Sydney! I arrived on my 6th continent (the only one left for me is Africa,) and managed to find Tom at his hotel. We spent the morning with some of Tom's colleagues wandering around the city a bit and had a fantastic day. We walked through the botanical garden (completely gorgeous - even with the crazy bats flying & screeching everywhere,) past the opera house (incredible), over to Manly on the ferry for some lunch, and eventually made our way over to Darling Harbor to meet up with some other folk who suggested we all go to the Aquarium. It was a REALLY neat place - you could walk through the largest tanks and see all sorts of sharks & rays etc swimming over you. After the aquarium, Tom and I went to Wildlife World (this picture was taken in front of it) and saw live koalas and kangaroos! Later that evening, we went with our friend Flora down to Bondi for dinner along the beach before I finally crashed and had to come back to the hotel for some sleep in an actual bed.
