As you'll learn from one of my "to do" tips, a visit to the Royal Botanical Gardens in Sydney is a must. For our family, it's almost religion to spend quite time exploring a lovely green oasis in the center of a major city. One of the more interesting things about the Royal Botanical Garden is the colony of "flying fox" bats. Located in the trees just beyond the Lion's Gate, you can hear them squeaking in the distance as you approach their little forest. At first, you don't realize what you're seeing and hearing... but all of a sudden, you find yourself in a sea of bats. Thousands of them, all over the sky. And, there's even more of them hanging upside down in the trees, getting some daytime shut-eye. ...just another interesting and slightly unusual aspect to the Sydney Royal Botanical Gardens experience.
