Day 4 (In Sydney)

Quick follow up to yesterday’s experience in the Narita lounge, I did find that they had a massage along with a full shower and  not to go into too much detail, but the Japanese have it all figured out with the bidet system built into the toilet seats, nice!!
OK, on to my first day in Sydney, I got in to the Four Points Sheraton around 9 this morning and meet up with Rick, we went out to grab a quick bite and walk around Darlington Harbor. After about a 1.5 hour walk we came back to the hotel and meet Robert. We then decided to walk over to the Sydney Harbor Bridge and take the full tour. It was expensive and long. but worth it. We went up and over the bridge, seeing the Sydney Harbor, the Opera house and Governors’ Mansion just to name a few.  After a 4 hour tour we finished up and started a Pub Crawl all the way back to the hotel. Went to the oldest bar in Australia, as well as the oldest bar in Australia and finally the oldest bar in Australia. I know, a bit of repeating myself, however each bar claimed to be the oldest, one even dating back to its first license issued in 1817. I’m not sure who is right as each has its own definition, one has had the building the longest, one has been in the same location the longest and this one with the liquor license date. Being the equal opportunist that I am, I sampled at all locations. I did really enjoy the different local brew, maybe too  though, I’m doing touch and go’s just writing this, so with that said, it’s around 8PM local time and I’m going to post this along with a cool picture and hit the sack. If this doesn’t quite make sense, please forgive me.
Take care,
Paul
