Sydney's Royal Botanic Garden And Hyde Park

We strolled through part of the Royal Botanic Gardens adjacent to Government House on our way back to our hotel. With its glorious waterfront location it's strikingly reminiscent of Vancouver's Stanley Park, but of course it's a lot more tropical.

From there it was only a few blocks to Hyde Park, across the street from our Sheraton On The Park, and the St. James station where we'll catch our train to the airport in the morning.

The Archibald Fountain in the center was quite impressive.

And now for a little relaxation time after our 3-4 mile walking and gawking route before setting out on our dinner cruise this evening.
