Morning tea, meet Lou and vivid festival

Monday 21st may up early and Bianca texted to see if want to cal at hers first before morning tea to get my birthday present present and coat hangers. Then on to the big morning tea which work organising for cancer research so thought would go show my support. It looked amazing my mouth was watering just looking at but so much choice but mainly sweet things so what to have. May, Andrea and Michelle were helping out but their came to sit whilst I had a nice cup of tea with some yummy treats. I didn't really want sweet things but more sweet than savoury but found a few savoury things nice onion tart made my Andrea and carrot cake. It only cost $5 per plate and at least was off to a good cause like cancer but their is always some who take advantage as was one who put in her bag. Afterwards popped to Rhodes to print off some pictures for my picture frame whilst waiting for them to print. Thought might aswell pop to flight to price up Adelaide and kangaroo island and is not too bad a price at minute but need to wait for off duty. Home aim to go for run but never happened instead I updated blog and sorted out pictures into photo frame. It was then to meet Lou at circular at 5ish for tea went to orient had kangaroo burrito was good whilst sat eating and drinking starting raining heavily. So thought might aswell have another glass of win whilst we waited to see if rain stopped as aim was to go see vivid festival after. When left just after 7ish rained appeared to off stopped but was just drizzling but Lou went home whilst I went to look at the vivid festival. The vivid festival is the 18th annual event of light, music and ideas has become Sydney's major festival in winter attracting lots of visitors. You can see why when you see the favourite lighting of the Sydney Opera House sails  has lots of good designs such as stars, pin ball machine, zebra and lots more. Also was beautiful journey round the harbour foreshore known as the light walk to see all the different light sculptures. The bulky bulb along the promenade is hard to miss a hugh old fashioned light bulb which is criss crossed with translucent tubes. Some off the light art sculptures have a message, some are pure fun and then their are ones which are interactive. Also the buildings round circular quay like customs house and museum of contemporary art transform into amazing colourful canvas. What ever you come for its an engaging, colourful and beautiful way to experience Sydney Harbour on a winters night beneath the stars. Then walk to Wynyard to catch train back got in just after 9, chill with wine and watch my favourite programme Elementary.
