Sydney Parks, Gardens and Harbor

Started the day with breakfast outside at our hotel. We had excellent weather our whole trip. Still very warm in Australia even though they are headed into autumn. This is Sydney Tower that we visited the night before.
Fountain in Hyde Park.
Tourist central here. Me in my backpack studying the map.
On a tour through the Royal Botanical Garden.
Beautiful flowers. Also saw lots of bats in the garden. They were very large bats! Over 20,000 live there.
Nice views of the city from the garden which is in the middle of the city and goes right up to the harbor.
View of Sydney Opera House from our Harbor Tea Cruise.
Sitting outside on the boat. We took a boat ride around middle harbor. Love those guided tours.
Sydney on the left and Sydney Harbor Bridge on the right. Finished our day off at a German beer garten, enjoying some cold brew.
