Schweinshaxe

So I conned Ollie into being a tourist with me. (yay!). Like I said, I've been living in Coogee and haven't spent much time in the CBD of Sydney. So here we go...the pictures that every legitimate traveler needs to take.

Look! It's the Sydney Harbour Bridge!

Opera House fun fact: The original estimate of construction cost was $7 mil, while the final cost came to $102 mil.

Outdoor restaurants in The Rocks...the oldest part of Sydney.

There's always time for pondering....

Hope you love my postcards :)

The Argyle = sickness.

Ollie took me to this sweet Bavarian pub, The Lowenbrau Keller, where we enjoyed some brews and brezels...

And Schweinshaxe!

It's hard to tell what Schweinshaxe actually is since we devoured it rather quickly...but it is roasted pork knuckle...and it ain't right! So yummmmy. Ollie then gave me a crispy bit of it and as I began chewing it I asked him what it was (yes at the same time...incredible manners I have!). He finally told me I was simply nibbling on the cooked fat of the piggy. Thanks Ollie friend.
