It’s the day after Christmas and all of Sydney looks forward to the Boxing Day holiday. It’s definitely a colonial hand-me-down, but one that was welcomed because it came with a holiday – an extra day to spend with family and friends enjoying the great outdoors!
Come December, Sydney will be at its summery best ready to welcome the all-pervasive spirit of Christmas! There may not be sleigh bells and snow, but every family, store, mall, school, hotel and harbour cruise...
From a fishing spot, to a penal colony, to a defensive fort, to a harbour navigation facility that houses a museum and a restaurant… Fort Denison has sure come a long way!
Sydney is synonymous with the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge, but these man-made attractions cannot be compared to the spectacular natural coastal beauty this harbour city has been endowed with.
As summer fades into winter in Sydney, days get shorter and nights colder. Between June and August, even the best of us can get caught in the grip of ‘winter blues’!
