Bloggers meet for lunch in Sydney

On Saturday, a group of bloggers met for lunch in Sydney at the Glenmore Rooftop restaurant overlooking Sydney harbour. After a delightful lunch, we watched the arrival of Jessica Watson after her solo trip around the world, sailing into the harbour to the Sydney Opera House, surrounded by hundreds of other vessesls and hovered over by news helicopters.

  5. Hah, noice that we are being recognised for our blogging efforts, Bill. I hope we will have another one to which more Aussie bloggers may be able to come. Might see if we can make it out of Sydney.

  6. Well now that is a thought for consideration, Julie!
    Brisbane is warmer than Sydney!!! But NEVER in August, it's the terrible month of the year.
    Cheers

  8. I have said to Julie that you all appear so normal. I thought bloggers had to be a little weird.

  10. Great post Bill. I would say quirky rather than weird Bruce, unless you're just speaking for yourself. :)

  12. I am tossing around in my head for a 'midway' location. How about Mildura or Broken Hill or Goondiwindi. How about last week of November or first week of December? Would need to be a weekend.

    Give me your thoughts and then I will email some of the others.
