Rain Out, AGAIN!!
My last vacation in Thailand resulted in the day we set aside for the beach we got a monsoon. Today was almost the same, no monsoon but enough cloud cover and rain showers to keep everybody but the diehards off the sand. Luckily I learned from my mistakes and kept a couple of indoor activities undone so that I could do them during the rain.
The Sydney Aquarium and Sydney Wildlife Park are located very oddly in the heart of the city. They are both decent attractions built mostly for school field trips and tourist traps then anything else. The aquarium wasn't all that great, or maybe I was expecting too much for a city based on the sea and that survives on the sea so much. The wildlife park was good but after the past two days of seeing the same animals the luster of 'holding a koala' seemed to escape me.
The third thing was the AMP tower in the middle of the city. The very peak of the tower is the tallest point in the city at 305 meters. This was a nice place to relax and have lunch as I looked for several places in the city. It was like "Where's Waldo" if Waldo were Australian buildings. Great Pictures too:
