Day 6 Aukland to Sydney

Today we flew in to Sydney from Auckland.  Once we got there we dropped off our bags and began to tour the city.  Today we visited the main park in the city, the Sydney tower, and went to the rocks to see the Sydney bridge, opera house, and a local market.

 Sydney Compared to other Cities:  After being in Sydney for a Day I have seen several differences between this city and other cities that I have been to in the US.  Sydney seems much more hilly and the roads seem more curvy.  The buildings are about the same style as most major cities, however there is a pretty clear difference between the old buildings there and the more modern ones that have been built.  This contrast I havn't seen in many other cities I've been to.  Also Sydney seems to have a few major tourist sites whereas chicago has multiple, small sites throughout the city.  Sydney is also more incorporated into the harbor, and its downtown is much closer to the water then chicago.  Chicago is also a much larger city and Sydney is significantly smaller but because it is smaller it appears more clean.  I might have seen one hobo while in Sydney when a lot of the time in Chicago you will see at least ten on a single trip.  If I was to choose a city that I would rather live in I would pick Sydney because of its beautiful location, its cleanliness, and it seems less chaotic and calm then many other cities in the US.
