G'Day Mates!! We have arrived in Sydney and it is absolutely amazing!! They rolled out the "Red Carpet"(literally) for us and we are in awe of the hospitality and the beautiful sights and sounds of our 5 star hotel and surroundings. We had a welcome reception with buffet lunch, divided into smaller groups where we found out where our 4 day excursion would take us. More on that later as we have to keep it under wraps due to the intensive media coverage...the airport coverage was overwhelming!
In the afternoon, the groups broke up and some of us went on a walking tour and some of us went to the Sydney Opera House.
At five, we all met in the lobby to take a harbor cruise with appetizers over to the Taronga Zoo where we had a private tour of the zoo. We had our pictures taken with a Koala Bear and then a buffet dinner during sunset overlooking Sydney Harbor!!

As you can see, we do not have much down time!! Every moment is filled with an eloquent adventure and to end our first day, we had to pack for our next 4 day personal excursion!! Details on that later...stay tuned!
Looks great. I did check every building and we can view your blog in each building. Have a great time!
