New Years Eve 2011

Waiting on the harbour forshore during the day - helicopter shot
Midnight fireworks Sydney - Time to Dream

Finally this year Nick and I camped out at Blues Point Reserve to wait for the fireworks. They were fantastic the best I've seen for years. We waited from 1.30pm and Nick makes a great companion to do this. We read books, played with the iphone and ipod and ate food. Around us the atmosphere was happy and friendly. There are dress circle views of the Bridge and the harbour from this point so there was always something to look at during the day. Once night falls it was cooler. The skies were perfectly clear. We held our breath and the sky exploded above us.
