Family Stuff

It’s Saturday afternoon and it’s another warm day in Sydney. As you walk around outside, the sun beats down, so it’s nice to be indoors with the fan blowing. Since I last wrote I’ve been a busy little beaver, both with work and attending a few Sydney Festival events and going to the movies (although I have to admit it was the same movie I saw twice!)

My niece, Michelle came down from Lismore for a doctor’s visit. I met her at the airport and, ahead of the appointment at 1.30, took her for a tour around Sydney. We paid a visit to the Opera House, The Rocks (where we had lunch at The Orient), the City and to the set of Channel 7’s Sunrise. At the Opera House, I took this especially good photograph of Michele in front of the Harbour Bridge. I also travelled on Wednesday, I travelled to Rooty Hill for the funeral of a work colleague’s mother. I’ve never been to Rooty Hill before and I can tell you, there’s not a lot there. It was also stinking hot until the torrential rain hit.
