July 26, 2001 Sydney

Sightseeing in downtown Sydney and a midday opportunity to sing in St Mary's Cathedral.

July 25, 2001 Canberra to Sydney

Photos from this morning are posted below, since we were in Canberra. We're in Sydney, our last stop, and all the boys are with their billets from William Clarke College. The last couple of days have been hectic, and I think we're all glad to be in Sydney for three nights. Tomorrow we travel downtown to go sightseeing. We'll see the Opera House and sing briefly at St Mary's Cathedral, where I sang on tour when I was 12. The weather is warmer, but it is a bit rainy, which we have not seen since Auckland.
