Pictures, finally!

Admittedly a little overdue, here are some pictures of the trip so far! I figured everyone would want proof that I'm not actually hiding out in a basement somewhere...

Sydney skyline from the Botanical Gardens

Harbor Bridge & Opera House from Mrs. Macquarie's Point, the best spot to view them in the Gardens

This is Herman. He's my travel mascot, and a little shy, so you will probably only see pictures of him at the iconic spots.

I don't want to brag, but I've been working out...

Vanessa and I at the Point

Bondi Beach

Aboriginal art at the Contemporary Art Museum

More of the same, it's a style of weaving practiced by certain tribes

These are all depictions of women, each made by a different aboriginal woman

Vanessa, Sven, and I at the Blue Mountains

First giant creepy bug sighting! It's a cicada, and longer than my thumb. There were so many, and they were so loud it physically hurt your ears sometimes!

Creepy entrance to Luna Park, you walk in through the mouth!

Hopefully this will hold everyone over until I can post again!
