Sydney is the capitol of New South Wales, the state I grew up in.
I have always had a strong love for Sydney harbour and that wonderful iconic bridge that spans its waters.
The Sydney Harbour Bridge crosses the harbour at its narrowest point between Dawes Point and Milsons Point.
It is a double-hinged, riveted steel arch bridge.
It has a reinforced concrete deck and reinforced concrete pylons.
On its completion in 1932, it was considered the essence of modern bridge design and engineering
creativity.
At different times of day, the bridge becomes almost magical.
Many enjoy to take the three and a half hour climb of the bridge for a great view of the harbour and city.
My daughter Femia and her husband David enjoyed their climb a few years ago.
"The earth belongs to the Lord, and everything in it --
the world and all its people."
Psalm 24:1
