Stadium Australia , currently also known as ANZ Stadium due to naming rights, formerly known as Telstra Stadium, is a multi-purpose stadium located in the Sydney Olympic Park precinct of Homebush Bay . The stadium, which in Australia is sometimes referred to simply as the "Olympic Stadium", was completed in March 1999 at a cost of A$ 690 million to host the 2000 Summer Olympics . The stadium has since then hosted the 2003 Rugby World Cup Final , as well as the National Rugby League grand final annually.

17/6/10 We were on our way to Blue Mountains..Judging from the sky, you would definitely know that it was a very cold day.

We had a nice scenic view of the Darling Harbour. Darling Harbour is named after Lieutenant-General Ralph Darling , who was Governor of New South Wales from 1825 to 1831. It was only 5.17pm but the sky was already dark. The LG IMAX theatre - the largest screen in the world Darling Harbour , a locality of Sydney 's city centre, is a large recreational and pedestrian precinct that is situated on western outskirts of the Sydney central business district . Cockle Bay is just one of the waterways that makes up Darling Harbour, which opens north into the much larger Port Jackson . The locality extends northwards from Chinatown , along both sides of Cockle Bay to King Street Wharf on the east, and to the suburb of Pyrmont on the west. After much admiration of the harbor, we walked back to the hotel feeling satisfied as the night view of the harbor was indeed spectacular. Thursday Challenge

I met up with my brother-in-law and his son when I was in Sydney. They came all the way from Newcastle, picked us up from the hotel and took us out for lunch. My brother-in-law parked his car at Crown Street and we saw a police riding a horse.. Amazing! From the Crown Street, we walked to the Trinity Bar. It's just around the corner..

Welcome to the Royal Botanic Gardens. An oasis of 30 hectares in the heart of the city. I was actually amazed by the uniqueness of the trees. They remind me of the trees in Taiping Lake garden. 4pm, 15 june 10 I love this view the most. The significant Sydney Opera House and the Harbor Bridge.
