Darling Harbour is maybe the most popular place in Sydney, after the Opera, of course. There is quite a concentration of entertainment spots there. That's where the Sydney Aquarium, the Powerhouse Museum, the Chinese Garden, the Segaworld, the IMAX (the world's biggest movie screen), etc., are located. Besides that, Darling Harbour has a concentration of all sorts of restaurants and that was the place we chose for our Xmas supper. |

Tarong Zoo! That was the place we could finally touch and see the most famous Australian symbol: the Koala. Most of the times, the Koalas are sleepy because they eat eucalyptus leaves almost all day long and the concentration of alcohol in that plant is very high, so, in simple words: Koalas eat, get drunk, sleep, wake up, eat, get drunk, sleep and that's how they seem to live. |

We drove all the way from Sydney to the Gold Coast (approximately 900 kilometers). It took us one day and a half, however, we had the chance to see beautiful places along the way, like Port Macquarie and the Emerald Beach. Also, it wouldn't be possible to have this picture taken if we were not "on the road" in Australia. |
