Vivid Sydney 2013

Last night we headed down to check out Vivid Sydney 2013. As always the light festival never fails to impress. The bridge and the Opera House were definitely the standout acts of the night. But for some reason the rest of the Quay seemed to be lacking a little in the lighting department compared to past years.

Vivid Sydney 2013 is certainly still worth checking out regardless. We live in a beautiful part of the world, and in such a knock-out city even without the annual light show. Always great for an evening stroll.

My three hot tips:

1. Check out the Vivid Sydney 2013 on a school night. The weekends are likely to completely packed out, as Vivid finishes on the 10th June (next Monday)
2. For a brilliant view of the entire Quay, climb upstairs to the Sydney Overseas Passenger Terminal for a beautiful, uncrowded view
3. For a great cheap feed there is a great little place at the bottom left-hand-side of the Muesum Of Contemporary Art which does delicious $7 Lamb & Rosemary Hotdogs! #winning

Here are a few shots from Vivid Sydney 2013.

Hanging In The Heights

Spent the weekend up in the mountains at my folks place a couple of weekend ago. You seriously can't beat a good weekend involving friends, family, plenty of food, booze and an overly active dog!

Here's a few shots from an amazing weekend in the heights.

Long Weekend Camping Capers

Two weeks ago, we got away for a long weekend filled with surfing, camping and not much else! We had the most perfect weather conditions you could ever ask for. Not a breath of wind and perfect 25 degree, cloudless days for four days in a row. Although the waves were a bit on the small side, the clarity and water temps made up for it.

Here are a few shots of the gang in beach/camp mode.

Enjoy

**Note** We stayed at the Sandbar Holiday Park which is well worth checking out, if you feel the need to get out of the rat race.

A Sausage Named Lola

Most of you who know Nat, know of her mild obsession with dachshunds, especially if they're of the mini variety.

So Nat recently subscribed to a website called Find A Dog Minder, and got the call last week to see if we were available to mind a small lady snag called Lola for the weekend.

Needless to say, Nat and Lola got along like a match made in heaven. But I feel like the photos will probably speak for themselves.

Enjoy.

**Find A Dog Minder, is definitely a great service for those who need to get away and don't have the money to check their dog into a kennel. Its also great for those looking to take a dog for a test run before actually buying one**

The Bevel Drives Got The Desmodromic Blues

I love music, especially the blues and rock n' roll. This has been ingrained in my DNA by my dad, who sings and plays the harmonica in a band called The Bevels Drives. I rocked out with The Bevel Drives in Orange on Saturday night and these photos are the evidence of the good times had. Strangely enough - my memories of the night are failing me...always a sign of a cracking gig consisting of all the best debauchery of any good rock n' roll band.

There are a load more shots on The Bevel Drives Facebook site. Check em out here

Enjoy.
