Riverfire ...

Words can't describe the fun of the fireworks... a 30 minute spectacular as bridge and city light up...

If you would like to see some additional pics, they can be viewed on my Flickr account, here 

Brisbane RiverFire - Precursor

So, if you plan to come to Brisbane, try and visit in September and be sure to catch our river festival.  The festival always culminates in the biggest and best firework display ever ... here are a few shots to keep us entertained as we wait for the main event... we are lucky, this is the view from our balcony!

As many as 500,000 people descend on Brisbane to watch and our military (RAAF) put on a spectacular show throughout the afternoon to keep the crowds entertained and far from bored...

Super Hornets do a flypast .... weaving their way through city buildings ... the power and the noise defy description ...

Helicopters thrill the crowds as they sweep and turn around the river ... hovering ... the wind from their blades sweeping across the crowds ...

a final flypast from the Hornets before the main event ... when the city lights up and the crowds stand agog awaiting the wondrous performance of fireworks and lights ....

What? Never been to Sydney?

What the?   I can't believe you haven't checked out Sydney yet!  Let me share some pics with you so you can see what you are missing!!!!

 

Sydney Harbour, with its Harbour Bridge, reminiscent of a coathanger.

If you are super fit, why not take a walk and climb to the top?










Then of course, is our ever familiar and iconic Sydney Opera House ... unique and instantly recognisable.

Linger awhile at The Rocks, full of historic buildings and home to many great restaurants?

A great place for dinner or people watching ... you never know who you might meet, just ask our very own Mary, Crown Princess of Denmark ... future Queen of Denmark ...

.... and stay awhile in history as you consider how it was before and after the arrival of The First Fleet ...

Catch the best snaps from here to post on Facebook and make your friends jealous!

Cruise ships dwarf our Opera House....

Sydney in September!!!

I was fortunate to spend a few days in Sydney, Australia on business in September!  Check out our fabulous new offices @ the historic Corn Exchange ... oh - and what a great view over Darling Harbour from my hotel room....

 

I love Sydney, so much to see and do, the people are so friendly and a great multicultural place to spend time... business or pleasure...
