Sydney Olympic Park

June 16th

Now called ANZ Stadium, the Olympic Stadium is the largest one ever used

Zach, Laura, Sandra, and I trained our way to the Sydney Olympic Park for our last day with Laura before she flies back to the USA. It was quite a ways away from the inner city and took a few trains and an hour and a half.

The Olympic Park is considered its own suburb within the suburb of Homebush. The main stadium, the ANZ Stadium was (and still is) the largest stadium ever used in the Olympic games. It's massive!

We walked around the grounds of the park for awhile. There's a lot to do at the park. There was a skate park, archery, mini golfing, tennis, and various other grounds where one could take up sports. The dome within the park is said to be the 2nd highest grossing venue of its type in the whole world, second only to Madison Square Garden!

We ended up mini golfing. We didn't really keep an accurate score, and just kind of fooled about. It was a good time.

Bye Laura! See you in Miami.


Cheers!
