January in Sydney
It is January, and part of my body&soul would like to shut down and go into winter mode, just like it kind of did during my years in London. There is something quite beautiful in hibernation. Usually this would be the time to make green soup and say no to nights out.
However, the reverse seasons means that Sydney is kicking off in January and it being summer we have so many fun things planned over the next few months, including trips to Melbourne for the Open, a holiday in Tasmania, people visiting from England, the Sydney festival, Mardi Gras, hopefully a few lazy Sunday mornings at Bondi Beach etc etc . Tonight we have been to the Sydney Opera House to see a pseudo ballet performance called Anatomy of An Afternoon - basically one hour of this hot dancer showing off an amazing body. Quite bizarre but strangely satisfying.
The sunshine at this time of the year still feels like a surprise to me. I ,love walking to work with that brightness on my face, Days are long and sunset are generously dramatic. In general the city is buzzing - you can tell that people go out more and that are pretty much focused in making the most out of it.
