April 28th, the first time


April 28th the first time
Today is Sunday April 28 and the ship docked in Sydney at around seven o’clock.
Our plane doesn’t leave until 9:20 tonight.
So we booked a transfer package with Princess .They took us on a three hour tour and then delivered us to the Airport.
The tour was in a nice big air conditioned bus. The driver, Malcolm was very well informed about the city and its history.
We had a quick stop at Bond Beach. It is beautiful and we would have loved to spend a few hours there.
We learned some interesting facts about the metropolitan area of Sydney.
For example it has 54 surfing beaches and 73 golf courses, it was founded as a penal colony over 200 years ago and it has a population of approx 4 million people.
It is a beautiful city and it seems to be very livable.
We arrived at the airport around one o’clock so it has been a very long day. But finally we are at the gate and the plane is supposed to board within the hour.

But this vacation is still not over we do have three glorious days to spend in Honolulu.
