sydney water

The weathers been pretty crazy this week.  I'm talking rain, wind, and cold.  yep, contrary to popular belief Sydney does have seasons and winter is no exception.    It's getting to a chilly 18*C .....~65* F.  yep.... that is considered cold (it might get colder).  Everyone is starting to get bundled up in sweaters and putting away their flip flops (thongs, as I understand they're called).  As a bay area native, I'm immune to the cold and still sporting shorts and t-shirts.

Sydney, the coastal town that it is, has some of the greatest modern water features ever made.  As a water park enthusiast, I am one to appreciate water features and, what really caught me off guard, was the cleanliness of the water.  I mean it is maintained and cleaned daily.. WTF!!  People play in the water and it looks clear?!!.  I mean there's no leaves, dirt, food wrappers, or anything of the sort.


water tunnel (of sorts)
 Some of their designs kinda funky, but i'm not complaining.


I have no idea what this is... but it's pretty cool

tripping hazard



WTF!!
Even this last one was pretty cool.. i mean a sub-surface water feature?  I imagine the conversation went like this:

Guy 1:  
Hey guys..
what if...
guys, listen
..... what if we just dig a hole and have
guys, guys!  
we'll have the water INSIDE the hole.

Guy 2:
uhh.... sounds like you need another beer.


Anyways, sorry about the delay of this post.  i'm getting bogged down with school work and such.  You can expect better next week!
