Sydney: about umbrellas and missing underwear
So I'm finally in Sydney :D
I still have a bit of a jet lag and just ran around the whole day but I hope that that what I'm writing here is halfway understandable English :)
The family I'm staying at is so nice to share their pc with us, so I can stuck my cute little nose then and when in here :)
I had a good flight, a fun stop in Frankfurt and Hong Kong, where we went into the cities and had a bit of a look around and get some nice impressions from them. Frankfurt was very nice, it has a cute old Inner city and of course we couldn't leave without also paying a visit to the birth house of Goethe. Hong Kong is a hell of a city, very impressing with all those amazing sky-scrapers, and the skyline at night also has something :)
The flight to Sydney then was kinda sleepless because my friend was so hyperactive that she kept me awake the whole time but it may be forgiven, since she's a large Aussie-freak.
And since it was raining in Frankfurt and Hong Kong we were already really awaiting a nice sunny summer-time but once we left the airport after i found out that my luggage went on it's own holidays, to go to the car we were already wet through...every monsum could be proud of the amount of rain coming down here, it's simply unbelievable!
So my first action in Australia was to march to the next shop to get an umbrella and some painfully missing underwear and shirts. I hope that my luggage might arrive in the next two days or I'd have to purchase all the clothing and other stuff I need again :S
Today (as my 2nd day here) the rain got worse, but still we made a little "round-swim" to the Opera house and Harbour bridge and during a little rain-break i got a very rare picture of both being covered in fog from a ferry (ok, I don't get this html-thingie):

Actually it shouldn't rain in february, the Australians also don't really get that weather...but latest in a week the weather shall become better and seen from the positive side we are not in danger of getting a heat-shock or sthg. like that because of our winter in Austria.
Well, the holiday seems to become very interesting, at least it's an adventurous start ;)
