Down by the Docks in Sydney

This series of photos was taken when eldest son, his wife and children visited Sydney about 2 years ago.  I thought it's a good idea to post photos of the Dock area.  As you can see it's a cloudy day, the photos were dark so I had to lighten them a little.  There isn't a photo of Sydney Harbour Bridge - how amazing is that!  Everyone always puts a photo of the bridge, expect me.
Plenty of places to eat in this area.

Sydney NSW

Youngest son J and his partner went to Sydney last year.  They took a cruise along the river and took these photos of the Sydney Opera House in Sydney, NSW, Australia.



This tunnel below was built between 1913 - 1936 to carry submarine electricity cables for the electric tramway system on the north side of the harbour as submarine cables laid across the bed of the harbour had suffered damage from ships and their anchors.
The tunnel became flooded in 1930 and remained in use until 1969. If interested, you can read more [ here ]  I left the tunnel as it was because it looks spooky.
