Kermit in Sydney (part 1)

After spending some time in Melbourne, we flew to Sydney, the biggest city in Australia. We had a great time there and we took some nice pictures too. Among other things, we have seen the Chinese Garden, the famous Bondi beach and we took a ferry to a beach north of the city.

The first thing we did was some sightseeing. I was dying to see all the famous landmarks of Sydney.

    It looks like you had a great time Kermit. It’s a shame you did not get any flies but at least you got to see some great views.
