Cruising the Harbor

Just time for a very quick post before it's off for another day of bowling. Just wanted to tell you about our dinner cruise around the Sydney Harbor. One of the highlights of the trip. All of the bowlers, other team members and volunteers were taken by coach (a fancy term for bus, but our driver doesn't like it if we call her coach a bus) to Sydney. From there we boarded a cruiser and did our dinner cruise. It was a lovely night. It rained on the way into Sydney and all of the way home, but not a drop while we were on the cruise. The harbor was filled with many other cruisers, water taxis, sail boats, etc. We saw the Opera House by sunset and lit up. Another bonus was the fireworks in the harbor. There was a new luxury liner that had been delivered from England, so they had fire works to celebrate that, though some of the Aussies tried to tell us it was all for us. On the way home, our coach driver had a fun CD in by a singer named Slim Dusty, so we all sang Waltzing Mathilda along with Slim. I need to look for that CD. All in all a wonderful evening.

Now it's off for more bowling. There probably won't be any more posts before the tournament is over. Thanks for all of your prayers and support.

Love,
