So the week before New Year, we looked for accommodation for one night on 31\/12. There wasn&#8217;t much choice, but we found one that we liked.  <\/p>\n<p>On 30\/12 we drove to Sydney and camped on a free campsite an hour and a half outside Sydney. In the morning we drove on quickly and arrived at the hotel at 10am, bought something to eat and took the train to Milson Point. <\/p>\n<p>We arrived at 12 o&#8217;clock and were glad that Luca and Josh were already there and had found a very good spot. We were so lucky, at 2 o&#8217;clock the VIP area, as we called it, was closed and the remaining thousands of people who wanted to secure a spot spread out on the square in front of it. It was extremely crowded, which was due to the fact that you could watch the fireworks there for free. However, the long wait was totally worth it! Our area was not full and we had the perfect view of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House.    <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eab07fb gallery-spacing-custom elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-gallery\" data-id=\"eab07fb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-1749 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"eab07fb\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"NYE in Sydney\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTc0NCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2Rlc3RhcnkuY29tXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDIyXC8wNFwvc3lkbnllLTEwLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6ImVhYjA3ZmIifQ%3D%3D\" href='https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-10.jpg'><img width=\"1536\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-10.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"NYE in Sydney\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-1744\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-10.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-10-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-10-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-10-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-10-1229x1536.jpg 1229w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-1744'>\n\t\t\t\tNYE in Sydney\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"eab07fb\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Airplane show\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTc0MCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2Rlc3RhcnkuY29tXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDIyXC8wNFwvc3lkbnllLTguanBnIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiZWFiMDdmYiJ9\" href='https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-8.jpg'><img width=\"1080\" height=\"1350\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-8.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Airplane show\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-1740\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-8.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-8-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-8-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-8-768x960.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-1740'>\n\t\t\t\tAirplane show\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"eab07fb\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"NYE in Sydney\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTc0MiwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2Rlc3RhcnkuY29tXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDIyXC8wNFwvc3lkbnllLTkuanBnIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiZWFiMDdmYiJ9\" href='https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-9.jpg'><img width=\"1536\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-9.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"NYE in Sydney\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-1742\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-9.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-9-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-9-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-9-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-9-1229x1536.jpg 1229w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-1742'>\n\t\t\t\tNYE in Sydney\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6182f6e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6182f6e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>And then? 12 hours of sitting and waiting.

Luca and Carlo spent a long time looking for a good spot to set up the cameras and found one on a wall with a clear view. 14 projectors per side were needed to light up the pillars of the Harbour Bridge and show pictures of animals.  <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a95850 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0a95850\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-1.jpg\" class=\" attachment-full size-full wp-image-1726\" alt=\"Children&#039;s firework in Sydney\" srcset=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-1.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sydnye-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The children's fireworks<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fc18eb2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fc18eb2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>At midnight, the show started.

When we found out that a friend of ours was coming to Sydney with his travelmate to start the New Year, we decided to go there too and join them in celebrating. So, the week before New Year, we looked for accommodation for 31\/12 for one night. There wasn\u2019t much choice, but we found one we liked. On 30\/12 we drove to Sydney and camped at a free campsite an hour and a half outside Sydney. In the morning we drove on quickly and reached the hotel at 10am, bought some food and took the train to Milson Point. We arrived at noon and were glad that Luca and Josh were already there..      <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1712,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[153],"tags":[21,176,29,59],"class_list":["post-1749","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bucket-list-moments","tag-australia","tag-new-south-wales-en","tag-oceania","tag-sydney-en"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Silvester in Sydney - Destary<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"New Year&#039;s Eve in Sydney.
