Walk in Sydney Botanical Gardens and surrounds

While Ally was slaving at work, I went for a relaxing walk in the Gardens. Light wasn't great but I took my camera nevertheless. I was suprised to discover that the gardens close at 3 pm on New Year's Eve - they would be the perfect place to see the fireworks in front of the Opera House. Maybe they don't want everyone climbing over the plants and feeding their champaign to the grass.

And yet another view of our flat in the distance - the tall building just to the right of the Opera House
