After a night in Christchurch I flew to Sydney and found a hostel for a couple of nights. The first place I found myself going was to Circular Quay and i stood there for ages looknig at the lit up Opera house and Harbour Bridge. It was such a surreal feeling and I froze for ages and was happy just to stand and look at it. I went for a closer look and it was even more impressive, then sat and got some dinner on the harbour where i could admire the view for a bit longer.
The next day I got the ferry over to manly beach (it`s not gay, despite the suspect name). I had a good day over there and played volleyball with some european guys who had just started English school there. It was great to be in the sun again after so many months of snow
