Manny visits Sydney, NSW

Just back from a short "break" in Sydney and then found I had 4 days off for Easter. How cool is that! More paid time off work - this job is unbelievable!!!

My mate on the girder on the Bridge

Not my fault!

If you have been following me on my facebook page you will have seen some of the places I checked in to whilst over there. I went with my mate (as you do) and together we checked out the Sydney Harbour Bridge - here's a photo showing him on a girder not wearing the correct safety gear, not even a hard hat! Sometimes I wonder about him . . . . .

We also took the ferry and sky train to Taronga Park Zoo and scoped out the animals - some of them are fairly ferocious - just check out the teeth on that lion! He was not a happy dude the day I saw him but maybe he is not always feeling that way. He did have 2 lionesses with him, possibly the strain of having two wives was just getting to be all too much?

As well as strolling up and down the shopping malls, I took in some culture at the Art Gallery of NSW. Fantastic art, interesting exhibits and careless patrons. I was nowhere near the sculpture when that happened, I really wasn't. Took the opportunity to check out the Archibald Prize entrants - not sure I can truly appreciate them all - and spent ages just looking at the winning entry. Not bad!

The hustle and bustle of Sydney is certainly not for me, I much prefer our laid back Bunbury lifestyle and spending training and chat time with those of you studying through Combined Team Services. I'm hoping there will be lots of classes in the next few months that I can help the trainers with so maybe I will see you there!

I had planned to spend time on the Holland Track with Directors Karen and John this weekend but they left before I got back to town. So disappointed but maybe I can convince them to take me on their next trip? Well, here's hoping!!
