The journey and 1st day Sydney




Hi everyone,

We finally made it to Sydney after a horrendously long journey, but quite comfortable none the less. Club World is definitely the way to travel – don’t know if we can go back to Economy, having now tasted how the other half live. Neither of us have had hardly any sleep – I’ve had none and Geoffrey had only a few hours. So we will certainly sleep tonight.

When we landed in Sydney it was very cloudy – low cloud. Within a few hours it absolutely fell down with rain (they didn’t mention this in the glossy brochures). The water at Circular Quay was very grey not the lovely blue in the pictures. So let’s hope when we come back in two weeks time it will have improved.

We spent the morning getting our bearings at Circular Quay/The Rocks/Harbour Bridge and checking out all the eating places for when we return in February.
That’s all for now, must try to get some sleep before we jet off to New Zealand early tomorrow morning.
