I can't help but marvel at how clean Australia's environment is. This small park is particularly well-maintained, with unfamiliar large birds occasionally walking by - the kind you'd normally expect to see only in zoos - coming right up to us begging for food.

Under the gentle sunlight and mild breeze, we enjoyed our late breakfast in the sunshine, surrounded by greenery and these large birds. While Hyde Park is essentially just a city park, I love Australia's vast lawns and tall trees. Maybe it's because the tree species are different from those back home, or perhaps it's the different mix of people in the scenery, but everything about this city feels relaxed, even here in bustling Sydney.
