HYDE PARK in Sydney, NSW, Australia

Hyde Park, Sydney (present time)

Hyde Park, Sydney 1842

I know there is  Hyde Park at Cook County in Chicago City, Illinois, USA too;  and the biggest one is in Central London,  but there is also one in Sydney (name after the one in England) only to discover in my second visit to this gigantic country (one continent by itself) on our way to Sky Tower to take a Sky Walk.  Looking beautifully green from atop the tower.

See how slim the tower looks like from its shadow down below the Hyde Park.

Don’t forget to add this large park and the tower in your itineraries next time you visit Australia and challenge your fear of height.

come on! just a peek of me, hehe!

                         

The Sydney Opera House and in a marina.

Flora & Fauna

Whoaoh!!!  An iguana by the roadside?  Autralia's rich surprises and wonders. 

It's not to late to show love and respect to Mother Earth.

JENOLAN CAVES: Adventure, Wonder & History

The Stalactites and Stalagmites rock formation, a thousands of years in the making, considered to still be growing and forming.  Just one of those attraction in the Jenolan Caves Reserve.  A great place to visit in the Blue Mountain, AUSTRALIA.

Can you spot the Sydney Opera House?

One fine day on "Top of the World" from the "Land Down Under". A panoramic view of the city below taken from the top of the Sky Tower.

Merry Christmas to all !!!

My first ever December in Australia. Merry Christmas to all visitors!

Indeed Christmas is celebrated anywhere in the world, but never thought I would spend this season away from home right here in Sydney. I hope I could climb this tree and reach for the star above.
