A Wander Around Sydney

I had some time after an appointment and went on a walk. Here are some of the things spotted.

Darling Harbour,  an outdoor space with Conference Centre, Retail, Restaurants and other attractions. 

Volkswagen Pedal Powered Photo Booth promoting their environmentally friendly stance.

The Australian Maritime Museum large exhibits Submarine HMAS Onslow and HMAS Vampire 

The spider's Garden.
A garden complete with spider on the sandstone cliff on "The Hungry Mile' - formally part of Hikson Street. The new street name reflects the name the area was known as during The Great Depression, where men came in the hope of being selected for a days work on the docks.

High-rise Living 
Sydney can be a pretty city, however continual redevelopment may make change to that. Note the terraces dwarfed by the apartments.

Is this Art?
Jimmie Durham’s “Still Life with Stone & Car” Sydney Art and About.

Dawes Point. The wharfs are now converted to offices, apartments, theaters, restaurants, cafes and a hotel.

AMP Building at Circular Quay - "Abseil for Youth" is put on at the AMP building by the Sir David Martin Foundation to raise money for Youth in Crisis programs administered by Mission Australia. The Royal Australia Navy is a huge supporter and provide their skills for the event. Sir David Martin was a Australian Navy Rear Admiral. Thanks Bernadette for your email.

P&O's Pacific Jewel at Barangaroo 5 passenger Terminal

I do like the tent passenger terminal.
