It was not one of my best, but the 4-line 25 words-or-less entry that I put in for a Tourism NSW competition came home for me! A three night trip to Sydney!

Glass teacher Brenda had mentioned ONLY THAT MORNING that she should go to Sydney and establish contacts with some shops and galleries to sell her work there.  You can see some of her work at her website for her studio.

She was singularly unimpressed with my suggestion that we head off on a girls' road trip. The phone call that afternoon solved all that!..

  ·  Return airfares to Sydney

  ·  Three nights accommodation

  ·  Two Gift Certificates to 'Tales from the Vienna Woods' playing at The Sydney Opera House

  ·  Two passes to The Discovery Harbour Bridge Climb with BridgeClimb Sydney

So here I go! Abandoning children again, heading north to play tourist and doing the rounds of art galleries and glass shops in inner Sydney. I am required as a condition of winning to submit a diary and some photos for their website. I think I can handle that...

SMASHING!  And just a teeny weeny weekender bag this time!
