Day 33 of 100: Sydney Bridge Climb



This morning, I met up with my other friend , Selina who would take the adventure with me for the next 2 weeks. Good luck, Selina! We met up at Sydney Hilton for breakfast and then we headed to the Sydney Bridge to climb the bridge. Fortunately, the weather was good and the sun has come out. We arrived, we changed into jumpsuits, we practised with climbing the stairs and we finally went out to the real thing. We pretty much walked on the narrow catwalk alongside the bridge structure until we arrived at the arch of the famous Sydney bridge. Selina was afraid of height so need to thank her for experiencing this with me. We walked to the highest point of the arch and then across and came down. Of course, we could pretty much see all the surrounding area from the top of the bridge but tourists like selina and i, would automatically lock our eyes on one of the most iconic structures in the world, yeah, you guessed it right...the Opera house. The whole climb was about 3 hours and it wasn’t that demanding as selina originally thought. Since we were not allowed to bring camera, we pretty much have to purchase the official yet expensive photos at the souvenir store. Here are some shots we took from the adjacent tower and you can see i was trying to swallow the opera house...LOL


Can you see those people climbing up the Sydney Bridge???? We were one of those in the morning.





Having fun with the Opera House!
