Thursday morning I woke up with a mission. Decided to attempt the Sydney bus system and go downtown. It was incredibly easy. I walked around for a long time, decided that my laptop is rediculously heavy, and found a cafe with free wi-fi. That was a god-send. Here's something weird; an "Americano" is called a "Long Black" here. And if you want milk, they have to do it for you and you get a weird look. No cream here. At least not sitting out.
After the cafe, I figured out how to take the train (subway) to King's Cross from downtown. That's one of the Sydney neighborhoods, a bit similar to Capitol Hill in Seattle. Met up with Chris and his friend Madellen to go have Tapas for dinner. That's when I got the best view I've seen so far. Just below the Sydney Harbor Bridge, across the water from the Opera House. Took my breath away. Really. I'll write more soon! FYI, it's been pouring down rain since I arrived!! Guess I brought it with me... :)
