We happened to luck out and our visit to Sydney coincided with the one day each year that the famous Opera House is opened to the public for free behind-the-scenes access. On my previous visit to Sydney I had taken the paid tour but on this trip we saw far more than we did on my prior visit, albeit without a guide.
I think I took roughly one thousand photos of the exterior of this icon. I remember when family friends moved to Sydney in the mid-1970s and came back with photos. Even as a child I just thought it was an amazing sight to behold.
