Trip to Sydney

After mentioning on my blog that I have never been to the Opera House

my daughter-in-law Gillian bought me a ticket to see Macbeth at the

Opera House for my birthday.

I was going with Gillian and her mum Wendy who's birthday is

the day before mine, and my daughter Tara.

Just before we were leaving to head down to Sydney

Gillian was notified that the show was cancelled as the cast

were sick.

We decided to go down anyway.

We had a fabulous night!

Started with a wine tasting and sculpture viewing at The Block

which had a great view of the harbour bridge and across to Luna Park

We walked to the rocks where we had a lovely dinner.

Then we walked right around to the Opera House.

The view of Sydney Harbour, the Sydney Harbour Bridge

and the Opera House at night was spectacular!

We were staying at Pyrmont for the night so went home

via The Star (previously known as Star City Casino)

The sign at the front is a popular place for photographs

for those who are young and flexible enough.
