I sure did.

I sure did.

At the beginning of the tour our pictures were taken in front of a green screen; at the end you could purchase a folder of them with various backgrounds. I noticed however that the folder had a code that you could punch in on their website to download the digital versions. So I memorised the code, and later on downloaded my photos.

This one is actually great as you can see the inside of the concert hall. The Sydney Opera House Grand Organ at the back is the world's largest mechanical pipe organ, 138 pipes visible, 10,000 hidden in behind. It took 2 years just to tune all the pipes after it was installed. This is where we saw the orchestra rehearsing. Everything you see, the angles and shapes of the ceiling, walls, me and the seats are all acoustically designed.
