However, one can but hope!
I really feel for the people of Lismore. I can't imagine what they are going through, having only just begun the clean up from the last floods. And my heart goes out for the organiser of BluesFest if he is affected for the third year in a row. So my irritation with the rain is merely that and I should probably count myself lucky!
So while I'm not the biggest fan of that musical, I've got my fingers crossed I get to see it!
And Sydneysiders, if you didn't know 'The Phantom of the Opera is here!' (see what I did there? Hope you sang it...ticket website is linked)

(The blue sky and harbour - both of which I haven't seen for awhile!!)
Javier Bardem is such a good actor, I think he was in one of the james bond movies wasn't he?
ReplyDeleteyes, Skyfall - but he was AMAZING in No Country for Old Men
DeleteBeautiful photos of Sydney Opera and harbour. I hope the weather clears up in time for you to see the Phantom of the Opera. Thank you for linking up with Weekend coffee share.
ReplyDeleteYour Sydney photos are gorgeous, such beautiful city!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful skies and gorgeous views. Cinema on the harbour sounds like a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of the Opera House. I had to look up why the rain would cause cancellations but did not find anything. Interestingly, I learned that the first performer was Paul Robeson, who san Ol' Man River about 1960. I heard him in concert just a few years earlier back in New Jersey. It was such a memorable performance.
ReplyDeleteIt's a performance on a stage floating in the harbour. You sit outdoors. They don't cancel, you have to sit in the rain but I'm not that dedicated to Phantom or Fireworks to do that.
DeleteThese are beautiful photos of Opera house and the Sydney Harbour...
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
Lovely photos! I do hope you get to see Phantom of the Opera. I saw the London West End production here in Israel pre-corona and it was wonderful!
ReplyDeleteSinging along with you and hoping the rains ease. Been watching with horror from afar the impact of the floods. What lovely photos of Sydney I can't wait to return to our family home in Melbourne it's good to see people out and about!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week

We could use some of that rain here in California, it has been such a dry year for us. Lovely photos. The changing light is really beautiful.

Memorable moments, nice places!
ReplyDeleteI wish you good weather!
I love water and your photos are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you a lot for sharing these in the game!
Happy WW and a fine week!
Attending an opera there is on my wish list! I'm seeing La Boheme locally next month and I can hardly wait!
ReplyDeleteONE DAY I will visit Australia - here's hoping! Thanks for sharing and for linking up with #MySundaySnapshot.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots of these photogenic landmarks. Vagaries of our weather will always play havoc with outdoor events. But I must admit I prefer opera indoors - I always try to catch a performance in the Opera House when I am in Sydney, even if I have to buy tickets at the last minute (and even if I end up in the gods, which incidentally can be quite a stunning place to watch the performance, the architecture and the audience!).
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking part in the "My Sunday Best" meme.
I hope the weather clears and you get to go to Phantom of the Opera. I agree the scenery there on the harbour looking out towards the Opera House is stunning!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos of my hometown and the best harbour in the world. It would be magical with all of this as the backdrop for the Opera and hope the weather clears for you. x
ReplyDeleteI got to the see Phantom one year in New York City with my grandparents and I have such fond memories of our whole day there! I hope the weather cooperates and you get to go.
ReplyDeleteI sang along with the Phantom of the Opera is here - and it'll keep popping into my head for the rest of the day I'm sure! I had ABBA's "I have a dream" stuck for weeks because something reminded me of it - darnn ear worms! The cinema visit looked great x
ReplyDeleteIt really is the best place in the world...and I haven't been to many places but my goodness Sydney Harbour you are magical. Thank you so much for linking your blog post up for Life’s Stories my fortnightly blogging link up at Denyse Whelan Blogs.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate your support and continuing blogging connections and friendships.
I will be back with the next #LifesStories link up on Monday 25 April 2022.

Lovely shots of the bridge and the harbour Lydia, I took some similar from the ferry on Monday when I was there. My mother loved seeing Phantom there just last week before the rain bomb.
ReplyDeleteLa Boheme - we watched it on TV when my 9 year old was also watching. When the death part came on I wanted to turn it off, but she said that she wanted to continue watching because she thought the music was beautiful. I blinked my eyes a few times to hide my surprise, but I let her watch it:) A happy Easter
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots of your harbour.
