Sydney CBD & The Book of Mormon

in #travel7 years ago

Today we moved into a hotel suite near Sydney Town Hall, as soon as we put our bags down we set back out to find food, afterward making our way to Hyde Park.

Across the road we spotted St. Mary's Cathedral and decided to check it out.

The inside was rather atmospheric as cathedrals usually are.

We're not religious, but the architecture of cathedrals is always appealing, and I can't help but feel like Robert Langdon from the movie Angels and Demons, looking for clues in symbols and trying to solve a larger puzzle. When we were finished exploring we headed back to the hotel to relax and a little while later were heading out again to see The Book of Mormon at the Lyric Theatre. My girlfriend is the thespian and was incredibly excited to see the musical, I had no idea what it would be like, but when she told me it was written by the creators of South Park, I became a lot more interested. It proved to be one of the best shows I've ever seen, it was absolutely hilarious and upon leaving the theatre afterward I immediately wanted to see it again.
