Sydney Harbour Bridge beakfast

AUSTRALIA: More than 6,000 people joined happily to have a breakfast on Australia’s iconic landmark Sydney Harbour Bridge Friday morning, the largest ever breakfast on a bridge in the world.

The New South Wales Tourism Minister Jodi Mckay where Sydney told Xinhua on the bridge that the unique production is a new event introduced as part of Crave Sydney, a new celebration of Sydney’s unmatched way of life with 31 days of food, outdoor art and fun during the month of October.

“This is the first time that we have organized such a big breakfast on the Harbor Bridge, but not the last. We plan to have another one next year, probably with even bigger scale,” said Mckay.

The 6,000 picnickers brought hampers full of fruit and croissants, while freshly baked breads and jams, apples and yogurt were also served by around 150 volunteers.

Among the picnickers was Han, a migrant from China, who said she was very happy and excited to sit with so many other people for breakfast on the green grass laid on the bridge for the event.
