Saturday, December 10, 2022

We would be spending almost the entire day at theSydney Opera House. But first we walked about a block from our hotel for breakfast at the Strand Arcade.

Schedule: 10am. Architectural tour of the Sydney Opera House and included lunch at the opera bar.

1pm. Handel’s Messiah with 860 singers in the choir

7:30pm Romeo and Juliet ballet

We went back to the hotel after the ballet and had dinner at a Chinese restaurant around the block from our hotel.
