My long weekend mini break


Hi folks, I have been awol for a few days. Can you tell where I have been?
Of course it's Sydney. Actually I went to Newcastle NSW for the weekend to visit Lyn who is up there doing some work.
I stopped off in Sydney for a few hours to do a spot of shopping. Boy, it was hot, especially when I was running around like a crazy woman. I had fun though. Three hours north on the train I was in Newcastle. It was so good to see Lyn!
We had some fun and I saw some lovely sights so I'm going to break them down into a few posts as I took a lot of pics (shock horror). I hope you like seeing them :)

  2. Glad you had fun. Can't wait to see your pics. I know nothing about Newcastle or Sydney (aside from the Opera House and what I saw on the Real World).

  9. Hi Sarah, glad you enjoyed the long weekend! We didn't realize it was one in Tassie till Hobart filled up to bursting point! It was the most heavenly weather too... I am looking forward to seeing the NSW side of Oz too..
    Still enjoying the sunshine up at Beauty Point today, and hopefully for our last few days in Tas. We have loved our tour around your beautiful state, and even though I am a die hard W.A girl, I can see how people fall in love with Tassie!
    Look forward to your pics,
    Flick xo
