Walking Along Sydney Harbor...

Ashlynn had to work that morning, so since I had some time to explore on my own, I figured it would be nice to walk to the Royal Botanic Gardens. Along the way, I saw some temporary art, including this cool dragon...

 ...and these girls about to go for a dive.

Further along I saw this navy ship...

 ...and spotted the iconic Sydney Opera House...

 ...Sydney Harbour Bridge (more on both of those later)...

...and the central business district. With more than 150 miles (240 kilometers) of shoreline, this natural harbor was so incredibly beautiful that my photos definitely don’t do it justice.
