Our trip to Sydney ...

We recently spent a week in Sydney with our 4 children. We had a great trip :-)

This was the view from our apartment ...


We were very lucky to have the Fleet Review occurring during our visit and got to see fire works from our apartment as well as the many navy ships and tall ships in the harbour. There were also aerial displays over the week were were there.


We took quite a few ferry trips on the harbour.


We visited my aunty and uncle and caught up with my cousin and his wife, for lunch.



We took a train trip to Katoomba / the Blue Mountains. We few very lucky to have been able to visit since the terrible bush fires began after we got home.




Some very serious ferry men ;-)


Bondi was visited and the kids had a swim at the Iceberg baths ...




The last night we were there we visited Luna Park ...


The dodgems were a favourite ... we went on three times :-)

D'Lish Scraps {Spring Creative Team} ...

So we had another great creative board this month ...



I loved the sketch and the bright colours against the black cake.

I started with some Studio Calico neon mists and a mask and paint brush and created my background.

Then I  flicked a bit of the mist around .


I used

Motex neon  tape in
- hot pink
and
- yellow

- third Flair from last months set

Head over to the D'Lish blog for more details :-)
