Goal 38 (Do the Sydney Harbour Bridge climb) – Done
July 8th, 2008
Month completed: July 2008
Last Christmas Nat and I received vouchers for doing the Bridge climb. With an expiry in November, we had to find a weekend to use them prior to us leaving for London at the end of next month.
Sometimes things just fall into your lap.
When Sunrise set me the toilet challenge, I saw an opportunity to get us up to Sydney for free. And amazingly, it worked.
Sunrise paid for Nat and I to fly up, and they also paid for us to stay at the Hilton for two nights. Go Mel and Kochie!
On Sunday afternoon, we headed to the bridge for the three-hour journey up to the top and back. We were able to do the twilight climb, which means you go up during the day, watch the sun set, and then climb back down at night so you can see the city lights.
How about that view!
Here is a Sydney Harbour bridge fact to finish off with – Paul Hogan (a.k.a. Crocodile Dundee) used to work as a rigger on the bridge.

That’s AWESOME!
Well done!
That would’ve lost you a few kilo’s surely! Hehehe.
That’s definately on my to do list!

I ate a parma the night before, so I think the walk just cancelled that out.
