Lights out - end of VIVID

Over the last three weeks I went to VIVID eight times, with and without the kids. Sometimes with friends, sometimes solo. I went to two VIVID concerts and dined at The Burrows, the VIVID pop up. I love VIVID. It makes me go out at night, it makes me enjoy the week nights, instead of sitting around watching tv, waiting for the weekend. It makes me love Sydney.

I am always a little sad when it is done. The only things I had left to see was the Airport installation and the Zoo (I'd rather spend my money on dinner than paying to see the lights, though I have friends that rave about the zoo, so I acknowledge I may be missing out)

These are the photos I took at Barangaroo, Darling Harbour and the Gardens, that I never had time to post.

All bubbles have a way of bursting, and all fun comes to an end. But why? Why does my behaviour fall back into dull routine?  

Good thing the school holidays are fast upon us, as I can fill the days with fun and exploration. 

Do you get sad at the end of a festival or event?

 For three weeks I was loving life. Now, it's a little meh. But I had dinner out with friends and slunk off to Sherlock Holmes yesterday so I really am still loving life a little. It's just not as colourful as it was.What are you loving at the moment?  Linking with #WeekendReflections because there are plenty of reflections on the water, but also on the glass in Bulletin Lane.
