It feels like yesterday we were in the airport and everyone was crying. I've been to so many places I can hardly remember them all. {Ok I'm going to write them down so I don't forget them and then I'll explain my trips there}. Harbour Bridge, Sydney point Tower, Opera House, Bondi Beach and Darling Harbour.
On Thursday I went to the Harbour Bridge. Oh my God. It was probably the scariest day of my life. My uncle took me there so I can climb the bridge. At first we had to go in to this room where we put on grey suits from head to toe. My uncle said that we had to wear these so that if there was anyone taking photos of the bridge, bright colours from peoples clothes wouldn't come up but instead we'll be camouflaged with the colour of the metal. The instructor then took us outside, where we had to start. He hooked us on with a harness to this metal trail on the bridge so that we don't fall off. Then we began walking. The wind was so strong but more importantly the view was amazing. I had never seen anything like it before. I could see the water right underneath me and the cars on the bridge beneath us too. .
When we finished walking the bridge my uncle took me to the Sydney Point Tower to have dinner. We walked up so many escalators. We past many restaurants but my uncle said he wanted to take me to the main one. I asked him why but he said it was a surprise. Finally we reached the top and the waiter directed us to a table near the windows. The sight was so incredible because it was glass all around. The whole floor we were on was rotating slowly and you could see the whole city below you. The lights out there were unbelievable, they made it seem like as though it wasn't night time and the moon was shining so brightly. It felt like a fairy tale except my uncle. I would've had Brad Pitt there. LOL!! Anyway after dinner we just ended up going to my aunts' house and I ended up sleeping there.
