Sightseeing in Sydney

After giving a presentation this morning for my Mergers and Acquisitions finance class, I took a walk into Sydney to check out the Botanical Gardens again. Since the gardens are so large, I saw a different part of them this time

These cockatiels are easily seen in the gardens and give off a loud, harsh yelp

On the way back to the University, I stopped in at the Reserve Bank of Australia, which prints the currency in Australia, and checked out their museum and exhibit on the history of their currency which was fascinating. Apparently, next year marks the 100th year the country has printed its own currency, with rum being the country's first medium of exchange.
