There's So Much To See

Sydney has got to be one of the most picturesque cities in the world. From nearly every angle you can take a post card quality photo with one of Sydney's many icons in it, like the above photo I took from Mrs Macquaires Point.

I have been to Sydney 3 times, twice when I was younger, and only once with my partner.

We need to go to Sydney again, now we have have got all the sightseeing out of the way. I want check out more of the nightlife and go out dining to some of Sydneys many restaurants.

Sydney- Star City Casino

The last time we were in Sydney we stayed at the Star City Casino.

We enjoyed our stay here, but we didn't spend that much time inside the casino. We just loved the convenience of how close it was to Darling Harbour and the City.

We did see the Rocky Horror Picture Show while we were there, which was a great show!

There are also plenty of restaurants and cafes' to choose from inside the casino.

The best way to see all that Sydney has to offer in the way of sightseeing is to jump on the Sydney Explorer bus. It visits 26 stops, offering an amazing insight into the history and majesty of Sydney.

I can't wait to go back and see more !

    Gr8 start Grant with helpful & accurate tips. You'll definitely have to come visit again & explore the city further. You live in a rather nice part of Australia yourself.
