Dry Smiles


After all this rain, the whole city is happy and excited for the sunshine.

I even enjoyed finally being able to wash the sheets and hang them outside. Seriously!

We finally got a good sunrise!

Walking the dog, everyone you passed would smile and nod or we'd chat about how great it was to have the warmth on our face.

Even though I didn't stop going out and about in the rain, I now FEEL like I've been making the most of our city!





For those of you that don't believe how much rain we've had, that lake below is normally a car park....

I got to walk to dinner at the fabulous Cafe Paci with friends.

I had dinner at the Opera House outdoors with the kiddo, before the fun of The 39 Steps. (While never watched any of her TV shows (can you believe it?!), I have to say Lisa McCune was excellent and definitely the highlight and the scene stealer! (It is on in Sydney, Newcastle, Melbourne and Brisbane - book tickets here).


There was dress up dancing and frivolity at Gatsby on Tour with a group of friends, preceded by dinner and cocktails at the delicious Don't Tell Aunty! Good vibes!






My costume with feathery fan, but alas with 'sensible' shoes....

 

This is on fire but hard to see


This weekend I am taking some of the overseas visitors to the Blue Mountains, and then we have 20 of them on a boat on Sydney Harbour. Hoping the good weather complies.









August has been a great month! With plenty of hoopla! (boomtish)







What's been on your calendar?
