A nice surprise waited for me in Sydney but at the moment they are holding a festival called Vivid Sydney. The coolest thing, in addition to a variety of music and art, is the harbour light show. They light up all the buildings, put on laser shows as well as light shows on the Opera house itself. Luckily I had booked a hostel right next to the harbour so I got an amazing view of the show (will share a shitty pic of the view from the hostel's roof-top as all the cool shots will have to wait until the trip is over). Since you don't find yourself in Sydney every day I decided to go to a show in the Opera house in order to fully experience the unique building. Only thing on was a Snow White ballet which proved to be a decent way to spent the night. I also decided to head out of the city to visit the Blue Mountains which offered some beautiful views. Last chance visit to a small wildlife park gave me a little more time with the Australian animals, including the weird Cassowary. Last thing on the agenda was climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The climb took around 2 hours + a 90 minute of safety prep and instructions. The views from up on the bridge were quiet epic. Now its time to say goodbye to Australia as I'm flying to China tonight!
