Opera House

So I took a tour of Sydney Opera House, which was amazing. The structure of the sails inside is breathtaking.



Fantastic views over the harbour and the bridge, even though it was raining - in fact we got a rainbow!


Do you see that the building is actually tiled - thousands of white Swedish tiles!


We also got to go inside the different theatres, where rehearsals were taking place for performances tonight. The opera sounded wonderful, but I am afraid I do not feel prepared for a five-hour performance (plus two 45 minute breaks) of Tristan und Isolde. Not a big Wagner fan.
