Right now I'm bloging from the airport. In a couple of hours, we will be sitting on the plane, on our way back to Norway. For three weeks I have been seeing a totally different wildlife, snorkling, and learned a little about australian culture as well. It has been the best three weeks of my life! As i wrote in the last post, I have been in Sydney. The city didn't seem very big, but it was a very modern city. It is actually one of the most multicultural citys in the whole world. Despite that there are so many different nationalities, I got the impression that they are very patriotic. Patriotic to the city, but most to the country. So I'm going to present some facts about the australian flag:
The Australian flag is blue with the Union Jack which is the flag of the United Kingdom.Denoting Australia's historical links with Great Britain. It also has a large white seven-pointed star, known as the Commonwealth star. It has seven points symbolizes the six states and the combined territories of the Commonwealth of Australia.
The last part of the flag is the Southern Cross. It Concists of five stars in a kite-like pattern. The constellation of the Southern Cross is a significant navigational feature of the southern hemisphere. It strongly places Australia geographically and has been associated with the continent since its earliest days.

You can't be in Sydney without having seen the opera house. The building is huge! It has about one thousand rooms. It's one of the most famous buildings in the whole world. It reminds of several white sailing ships, which it is a lot of in the port in Sydney. When we were in Sydney we didn't stay by the opera all the time. Of course we did other things as well. We were on Bondi Beach two times, which is one of the most famous beaches in the world. There is also a TV-show from this beach. The show is about Surf Life Saving Australia who patrols the beach, and controls that everything is ok. Every day the beach was full of people, surfing and bathing.
So Sydney, and Australia was beautiful. I would recommend Australia to everyone! All the tings that I've seen has been fantastic! The country and its nature is a sight worth seeing. All of the people are so friendly as well. They smile at you everywhere, and they are so helpful! I will definitely come back some time.
Hopefully it won't be to long;)
