Sydney.....sightseeing

AUSTRALIA | Wednesday, 14 January 2009 | Views [93]

Had a good look around Sydney today since I've been housebound for the last few days.  Went to the following

• Sydney Opera House
• Mrs Macquarie chair for a good view of the bridge
• Woolloomooloo Wharf
• Kings Cross
• Darling Harbour

I was watching a street artist in Darling Harbour who was juggling with knives on a BMX whilst cycling around 3 members of the audience. It occured to me that I'd see this guy before. After his show I asked him if he use to be BMX Boy in the Archaos Circus (famous for juggling with chainsaws).  He couldn't believe I remembered, as it was nearly 17 years ago that he worked with them.  He's now 38 and likes to be called Shaun.

I really love this city and it has a sense of familiarity about it.  I think this together with having somewhere nice to stay near the centre made me feel quite at home.
