Sydney: a wonderful city; It will the southern hemisphere effect?!The
day was full of knowledge and new things: we started to go to downtown
to see the building built in honor of Queen Victoria. Imposing as any British building of that era, beautiful, mischaracterized the place - better in London - and recovered. Inside, a shopping center with major international brands and some
niches such as art galleries, the Tate and MOMA shops, a spiral
staircase to the roof with a tiny door to remember Harry Potter.Hence, crossing Market Street, we went for the Sydney Tower and had the opportunity to climb its 309 meters. Upstairs, a 360 ° view of the city, giving us the real prospect of those coming from the sea, land or air. Curiosity
of the moment: a landmark mail even up there, saying it is a milestone
in the highest activity in the southern hemisphere. In the Andes there isn`t postoffice ?!Continuing the city tour, followed by a garden that looked like an Oxford copy then we enter a road that led us to the Art Gallery New South
Wales and the Botanical Garden.In the museum the better from first half of the twentieth century, with Picasso head, Matisse among others.Here, when took a selfie, a girl from high school came to ask if I wanted her to take off the picture. My selfie became a selfie with João and part of the secondary class, to laughter from the teacher who accompanied them.Ending a cultural visit, a lunch in the park for then we walk through the Botanical Gardens, to the Opera House.The garden grows as a natural barrier from the sea to the skyscrapers, a mix of color and life.The Opera House, designed by a Danish architect, through a draw
without engineering project, with its white ceramic works as a ready to
light and energy attraction. How does a shapeless object, brutal in its design, which generated an
incalculable debt can attract so many people from all around the world ?!From Opera the Rocks was a hop, just in time to see the Museum of Contemporary Art before dinner. Various
facilities with Energies title could put the audience to interact with
the art: jobs headphones, running a hand through several draws, these
emit different sounds. Or an image of a mountain where we could, by hand, fly like a bird and have many different perspectives.Nearly the end the day, a well-deserved dinner. Entries eat grilled vegetables, tuna flambé and bread with humus. For main course lamb shoulder and white and dark chocolate parfait and goat cheese for desert. To drink, a white wine from New Zealand, varietal Sirah.Was it expensive? Yes, but here nothingis cheap ...
