Explore the gateway to Australia with seasoned traveler Justine Shapiro in this release that spends a full week in Sydney exploring the marvel and majesty of the cosmopolitan paradise that overlooks the South Pacific. For over 60,000 years Australia has been home to the aboriginal people who thrived in the land that could be alternately brutal and beautiful. Though a fleet of 19th Century convict ships from Britain would alter the course of the world's smallest continent forever, the modernization that followed would result in such notable landmarks as the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bride.
