Australia Part 2:Sydney (an explosion of colours)

I apoligised for not having posted earlier but it was just too difficult to choose the photos I wanted to present. I think that this is so far the post with the most photos I have ever shown. It was good fun preparing it, I hope it will be the same for you to read it.

Aliénore told me that she was rather pleased to notice that living with your head upside down the globe did not seem so different from being in England.In fact, it was a real relief for the little doll.

One morning I told her we were going to the city. Aliénore was so excited . On the bus to Sydney, she could stop looking through the window and didn't want to miss a thing of the very exotic surrounding.

We first went to the sea food market where we could buy and eat all the fresh product of the sea and delicious local fruits.

Yummy!

Then , Aliénore went to Circular Quay where she was she couldn't wait to see Opera House and the beautiful bridge .

What a sight! and in the distance, something cought her eye...There seemed to be a Luna Park!She was determined to find the way to go there.And you know how determined Aliénore is.

Ss she tried to find the way. She visited The Rocks which has a very rich historical background. There were delightful stores and the little doll was amazed by the colourful windows of Sydney.

Aliénore also discovered some of Ken Done's amzing paintings.

He's always been my favourite Sydney artist .

Then we had a long stroll in the streets of Sydney.

It was nice and warm and yet it was still Winter over there!

Then we arrived at Darling Harbour.

Aliénore wanted to go in the water taxi.

Then later on, as she was in a shopping mood, she bought a pair of trainers and...

...a pair of original UGG boots that were perfect for her!

She felt like a true Australian girl!

Then dark came with the night revealing all the beautiful lights of the city and we were still determined to find the Luna Park.

After a long walk, we finally found it!

When we entered the Luna Park, it felt like being swallowed by a giant mouth.

Aliénore was a bit scared at first.

Once inside, it was truly magical.

This was just the perfect place for Aliénore who thought for a moment that she was in Heaven. Still no angels though...

Then, Aliénore's eyes started closing slowly. She fell asleep in my arms so I walked away.

It had been a wonderful day and yet, ther was still another big moment to celebrate: the wedding.

When I was walking away, I looked back and thought that we were lucky to be in such an extraordinary place and decided that I wanted to enjoy every single day of my life as if I was a little doll in a Luna Park.

Carpe Diem dear blog friends.
