Well, I'm back! Thank god to be away from Sydney. Has changed since I was last there. It's turning into Hong Kong.
Anyway, here's some pictures.
(All taken with cellphone because I didn't feel like lugging around my camera, also some of my photographs I tried to take like Panoramic didn't work as good as I thought )
I regret not taking my good camera. Any who.

It's not what you'd expect in Australia. Usually the Chinese segregate themselves to a portion of the city. Though in Sydney they're taking over. So it seems. Like in American cities all the workers in fast food joints are of Asian decent. Nothing wrong with them doing it, it's just weird because up here where I live it's all Australians or kids doing it.
I'm just adding video now. Of my plane flying over Sydney so I got great view of the Bridge, CBD, Harbor, and Opera House. As well as the landing in my city and random coastline. Plus... I'm thinking of adding all I recorded from the Top Gear Live show, hopefully I won't get sued considering I filmed a lot of it

I live about an hour and a half form sydney, i use to go there every weekend when i was with my ex/ I can tell you the place is a dump. Too crowded, a hell of a lot of hobo's who insist on targeting me for money, crazy people who you think are about to start killing someone at any second.. bleh. Such a bad place.

Lol, there's so many homeless people, I went out of my way to avoid them, except some old guy came up to me, pointed at me and said 'whats your name?' then he touched my army I was so disgusted I said if he touches me again, he'll have a good sleep tonight.
Though Sydney felt very New Yorky, especially when walking down and around Pitt Street. Quite crowded yes.
sydney wasn't my favourite place either when i was in australia. but it wasn't all that bad either. i like crowded places :3
Thank you cinnster. Yeah, Sydney was quite crowded for a somewhat small city of only 4.3million. I like you like jam packed cities like New York, London Sydney felt quite like New York with building next to building with no gaps. People pushing and shoving like they're in a rush. People sitting in Hyde Park in their lunch breaks was fun.
