my weekend was...

a. relaxing
b. unbelievably beautiful
c. unforgettable
d. not long enough!
e. all of the above

i choose option e, thanks.

despite having to work for a couple of hours on sunday (sooo busy *grumble*), this weekend just gone was one of the most beautiful weekends ever. we're talking about a sky so sapphire blue ~ actually no, it was more topaz blue, but that doesn't sound as cool ~ with warm sunshine and the most gentlest of breezes, for 2 whole days over a weekend! Is Murphy's Law finally working in our favour?

Wanting to suck up as much sunshine as humanly possible, panu & i headed out for a walk on Saturday. Starting at his place in Crows Nest, we trekked down Pacific Highway, through North Sydney and Milsons Point, and over the Harbour Bridge. Once over the bridge, we wandered around The Rocks, before heading down to Darling Harbour for lunch, and over to Pyrmont. After Pyrmont, we trekked back through Chinatown, up George St and back to The Rocks, where we'd parked his car the night before...

Here's our path:

While on the bridge, I took a moment to stop and absorb the views. It's incredible how beautiful Sydney is, and I cross the bridge (albeit by car) every other day, and I don't appreciate what I have at my doorstep. I love Sydney.

anyway, that was just Saturday! The weekend was "all of the above" for a number of other reasons:

• a fun friday night with friends @ opera bar, followed by cocktails @ ecq.
• brekky on the balcony with my man ~ he makes the best sausage & eggs!
• tapas for dinner @ encasa and dessert @ ice and slice ~ yum!
• late lunch @ lamrock cafe, bondi beach
• napping on the couch, my head on his lap, while he read a book *awwww*
• lamb cutlets for dinner, smothered in mint jelly, and pavlova for dessert *drool*
• oh, and a mango, macadamia & cream weiss bar for second dessert!

God, we're going to be fatties...

here's hoping easter weekend turns out just as well!
