On Friday Morning, we headed out to Circular Quay. We walked about 10 blocks from our hotel. We went through Hyde Park. The trees and gardens are striking. This is a beautiful oasis in the middle of the city.

Sam wanted to go in the Sydney Tower. We suggested we do that another time we come. He was not happy and I am sure he will try to hold us to our promise. It looks like it would be a nice thing to do. . . another time!

In the park, we found the Anzac Day Memorial. It was a beautiful ornate building, but the most moving thing was this statue in the center of the building. It is of two people supporting a fallen comrade.

St. Mary's Cathedral is preparing for the Pope's visit. The white archway is a countdown display with 200 more days until WYD (World Youth Day). We could not go in as there was construction and cleaning preparation going on.
