Sydney 2/1/2008
2/1 Wednesday
Took a walk over to the Opera House and I got a ticket to see Tina Arena in concert there that night.
We wandered around to Maquarie Point and took pictures of ourselves in front of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge.
We walked back to the centre and took a train out to Bondi Junction and from there took the bus to the beach. It was busy but not packed.
Stayed for about an hour on the beach and went into the sea, but it was surprisingly rough so didn't hang about. Didn't use sunscreen, thought I would be OK for a short spell in the sun - how wrong was I - badly burnt on front and back !!
We had lunch in Bondi just off the main street and then took a bus back to the train station.
Went back to the hotel and rested up before going out to see Tina Arena.
The seat was level with the orchestra and Tina was in front of this, but she did turn around several times. I'm sure that she made eye contact, while I was bopping along to her music and at the end I could swore that she shot me a wave. It was a wonderful concert, she has an amazing voice.
Felt very happy after the show. Took the train back to Town Hall and then walked from there to the hotel.
