Touring Sydney, Part 1

Sydney really is everything people build it up to be: the Opera House, the Botanic Gardens, the beaches! I recently traveled Down Under to take in its sights and sounds. This slideshow, the first of two about touring Sydney, hits just the tip of what's to be discovered in Australia's most populous city.

The Sydney Harbor Bridge (or Harbour Bridge as they spell it there) is one of the city's iconic landmarks. The steel structure, completed in 1932, stands 440 feet tall and stretches 1,650 feet across the Sydney Harbor. I took this photo from the west end of Circular Quay, the city's incredibly busy port that ferries riders all about the harbor.
