I love your pics Dark Avenger. I'd visit Australia myself if it wasn't a 24-hour plane ride away. Of course, I recognized the Sydney Opera House and the bridge which if I'm not mistaken is where the New Years fireworks are let off every year I believe. Look forward to more photos.

One movie I saw them in was Beyond Thunderdome, the last of Mel Gibson's Mad Max movies. At the end of the movie, a group of feral children, that Max befriended, are taken to the ruins of Sydney to make a new life. We see what's left of both the opera house and bridge at the start of that sequence.

Wow Sydney looks gorgeous. I'd love to visit one day. I hope you get that chance one day. I was very happy with where we stayed. Great window view of the city, especially at night. As the nightlife looks so cool outside my hotel window with the lighting. I also loved how the hotel was just across the road from the light rail network. Made it so easy to get around. Yeah, so do I. More so, since ABBA - The Movie and several shows from Australia I've seen. Can't wait for more pictures. As I am posting them. Once I sort some of them out. I have some photos on my camera I also took in addition to my phone. I tend to save copies onto a portable hard drive. I'm the type that once a SD card is all full up. I buy a new one, and keep what's on the full one stored away. Never can have more than one copy of photos. I love your pics Dark Avenger . I'd visit Australia myself if it wasn't a 24-hour plane ride away. Of course, I recognized the Sydney Opera House and the bridge which if I'm not mistaken is where the New Years fireworks are let off every year I believe. Look forward to more photos. Thanks. Glad you enjoyed them. I hope you get to do that one day. As I'd visiting England. Yes, it is where the fireworks are held each year. One movie I saw them in was Beyond Thunderdome, the last of Mel Gibson's Mad Max movies. At the end of the movie, a group of feral children, that Max befriended, are taken to the ruins of Sydney to make a new life. We see what's left of both the opera house and bridge at the start of that sequence. Ah yes, I've seen that movie too. Lots of Sydney is seen. Lovely photos. Nice to see you had a nice time in my state, Dark Avenger . Yes, I was in your side of the country.

As I've always mentioned if plane travel was cut more than half the time with cheap flight prices I would visit Australia myself then. Wouldn't know where to stay or start looking around though if I did obviously.

I been to australia, and seeing that opera house at close glance was great. Glad it brought back some memories for you. As I've always mentioned if plane travel was cut more than half the time with cheap flight prices I would visit Australia myself then. Wouldn't know where to stay or start looking around though if I did obviously. Yes, darn those flights. I too want to travel to so many places on the other side of the world. But, it HAS to be a good flight. As I won't do economy. I need good leg room because I'm tall, and It's such a long flight. I need it. Unless, I take a sleeping tablet, that knocks me out the entire journey.
If you go to Sydney. The area I stayed at was pretty nice, as near the trains and not far from the ferry which allows you to travel to lots of locations, if someone isn't keen on trains, and wants a nice boat ride with scenery.
I'm sure our other Australian members can help you, if that day ever comes you do travel.
If I ever won the lottery, you better believe most of it will go towards more travel. I'm not as fussed needing to buy a massive house, if I won lots of money. I'd hate all the cleaning. Plus, for me, a house big enough just for what I need. Maybe a bit bigger than what I have now, with an extra room.

If those flight weren't that long and I'd have had enough money, well, you could find me in Australia, America and other continents.

I agree the flight is long, because from america and australia, it's very far. and u don't stop anywhere, and so worth it, I love Australia and love to go back one day. I think sydney was my favorite
