Well I can honestly say that this is first new year's day since I've been about 16 where I haven't been feeling ill after a night of excess (or in some cases, still partying). It actually feels really good and refreshing to have a clear head on new year's day. Kind of like I'm ready to embrace the new year, instead of wanting to jump back into bed and hide for about a week.
We decide to go for a walk over the harbour bridge. It really still hasn't sunk in that I'm walking over the harbour bridge in Sydney with the opera house and harbour just below. It's absolutely stunning. Get to see it all a bit closer up when we get the ferry from circular quays across to Manly.
