Girls' Weekend in Sydney: Day 1

As per my previous post regarding Colour Conference, I headed down to Sydney with 4 other precious women from my life.  Our main reason for going, was to attend the Conference, but we had a couple of extra days before and after to spend investigating the city. And here is what we got up to:

Wednesday:

 At the airport, waiting to start our adventure!
 
Passing the time on the flight

 After arriving in Sydney, we did some exploring, which included shopping (buying my first Pandora bracelet!! Have wanted one for a few years now!) and some inadvertent celebrity spotting - Psy - famous for Gangnam Style.

All dressed up and ready for a night on the town!


We started with drinks and dinner at Centrepoint Tower's Revolving Buffet Restaurant, where we were about to view 360 degree views of Sydney, without leaving our table, including a beautiful sunset!
 

Then it was time to see a show - "Driving Miss Daisy" starring Angela Lansbury and James Earl Jones.  Unfortunately I didn't enjoy the show as much as I'd hoped, but it was fun going out with the girls!

We took the monorail to dinner and then walked back to our apartment after the show.  The location of our accommodation was great - walking distance to everything and right near the free bus, when it ran during the day.  Wednesday was a fantastic start to our weekend away!
