LATEST SYDNEY TRIP




I had my breakfast at 7 am and then grabbed my camera , walked to the Opera House which is only 5 minutes walk from the hotel. It was cloudy morning and I forgot to set my camera accordingly.





The city view from The Rock. My hotel, The Four Seasons is further right of this picture.





























The Sydney Control Tower can be seen on the far side, and the big Qantas monster ,A380 on tow out from the hangar.




And finally we were on the way back to AUH again. I was in the jump seat, took over control half way through the flight. A330 captured on the gun sight of A340.

TORONTO @ NIAGARA FALLS






Entering Toronto City. The tall CN Tower can be seen from far away and something different here, all vehicles while on the road must put the headlights on either day or night.

Quite easy to drive around the city with the prominent signboards and if getting lost due to wrong turn taken, there is always an alternative routing.






The towering CN Tower, the most prominent feature in Toronto. Would like to go on top one day, just want to see Toronto from bird"s eyes view.















Niagara Fall is about 120 km to the South of Toronto. It takes about one and the half hour driving, very easy to find. It is very near to the border of Canada and USA.
