last day in oz (for now)

Went to Coogie beach this morning and attempted to body surf on the huge waves, good fun but spent the first 30 minutes getting bashed around by the waves and doing forward rolls on the sea floor, good fun though! Then had my first fry up of the holiday, inch thick toast with all the usual stuff, very nice, sorry no photo this time :-)

Yesterday I walked up the 'east pilon' of the harbour bridge, oddly the pilon is on the south shore which confused me a little. Then wandered around a historic (or so all the guide say?!) area called the Rocks and visited the Sydney Observatory. Continued to take hundreds of photos in an attempt to take the perfect Opera House and Harbour bridge picture, think they need a bit of editing!

Just been busy packing my stuff as i'm off to New Zealand early tomorrow. Will have to come back to Australia. Bit annoyed I didn't take a trip to the Blue Mountains which is not far from here (it kind of looks like a mini grand canyon with trees in the photos i've seen).
