Seeing stars











In a bid to make sure that we never have to come back, Dania and I spent the last three days seeing everything still on our Sydney list. Highlights were a cruise around the Harbor and the Sydney Observatory. The latter involved learning about the distinctive southern sky (the constellations are different). We were able to see Saturn through a powerful telescope, which was pretty neat.


The sailboat photo is from the cruise. It was hard to take because we were moving, and the sailboat was moving. I rather like it. The sailboat balances the North Head land mass and the proportion of water to sky seems about right. I can sign a very limited number of copies when I get home.

Wow was that already almost 10 weeks! I can't believe how fast that flew by. Have fun on the next leg of your trip.

That telescope doesn't look very much like the one we have in the 4th bedroom.
