Sometimes it’s a challenge to differentiate cities from oneanother. Tall buildings, bustling crowds, men and women on cell phones sporting suits and leather bags. But after a day or two of smelling, tasting and seeing Sydney, it's unique flavor was revealed.
The plane from New Zealand spit me onto the city pavement before most residents had enjoyed their second cup of morning tea. I had until 5:30 to meander the city with my backpack before my couchsurfing host, Brett, would pick me up after work.
I landed dazed and confused, without any understanding of the city's design or transportation system, and I was without a map.
From the airport I took a train to the city center, found an overpriced internet shop to stow my bag and spent more change on a city bus so I could catch my bearings while touring the downtown.
Sorry…I’m out of computer time at the moment. I will finish the Sydney intro shortly.
