Cj juy, S ffi j ' rr fW 18 September, 1957 A few of the crew had been here before, and word had spread throughout the ship that Sydney was good liberty that the ' natives ' were friendly but nothing had prepared us for the breathtakingly beautiful harbor we entered as we steamed past the sandstone sentinels called Sydney Heads. All around us, as we turned south into Port Jackson, were hills and gentle slopes cove red with lovely evergreen trees and shrubs. White stucco homes topped with red-tiled roofs blos- somed like flowers in every direction. And, where the land receded from the sea to form innumerable bays and small coves, a gleaming border of sand lay like a pattern of wheat- colored crescents washed by gentle white-capped waves. These were the famous bathing beaches of Sydney, with their strange but poetic and charming names : DeeWhy, Collary, and Curl Curl Beaches, Coogee, Marouba and Botany, Woolloomooloo, Woolooware and Weeney Bays. ,-ig |S K| fJ EW?5 Past the ships moored at Dolphin and close to Fort Denison, the stone bastion once called Pinchgut that lies in the center of the bay, we turned once again and headed for our berth in Circular Quay. The entire scene now was dominated by The Bridge which spanned the water from Miller ' s to Milson ' s Point. A cantilever span arching gracefully over the entrance to the Parramatta River, it is the largest of its kind in the world. The people of Sydney considered the three United States Navy cruisers steaming proudly into their harbor a stirring sight, as shown by thousands of smiling faces and waving arms crowding close to every window in each building that afiorded a view of the ships. For their safety the crowd had to be barred from the quays, so they waited to greet us in other places. We little realized that our rather restrained welcome was no indication of the excitement to come. 27
