NOVEMBER 2020 : SYDNEY : Birthday weekend


A lovely weekend in Sydney with Nick and co for my 68th birthday.



The weekend included swimming lessons, ballet, Nippers at Bilgola beach and free surf time.




On my birthday we had breakfast at a Greek beachside cafe at Sydney’s Balmoral Beach


The highlight was the Arthur Streeton (1867-1943) exhibition. My favourite Australian artist from the Heidelberg School.




The works included spectacular landscapes, seascapes, scenes from European travel, war zones, mythical interpretations and still lifes.


I particularly love his delicate strokes. They are like exquisite calligraphy.



A four hour drive home to Canberra to take Mum out for dinner at Molto at the Foreshore near home.


A special few days
