Picnic on Sydney Harbour Bridge

Picnic on Sydney Harbour Bridge

Six thousand people in Australia have tucked in to an unusual breakfast sitting on the world-famous Sydney Harbour Bridge.The bridge, which on weekdays is packed with commuters on their way to work, was closed to traffic and its eight lanes covered with grass for a picnic, as part of a Sydney food festival.Accompanied by musicians, the picnickers feasted on freshly-baked bread, jam and fruit. They were chosen from 45,000 people who applied to take part in the event.Nick Bryant reports from Sydney.
