Just Another Friday Morning



Where   : Circular Quay, Sydney
When    : Friday, 26th October, 7-15am
Weapon : Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3



Every Friday, just about for the last 17 years, I have had breakfast on a boat, on Sydney Harbour, as a Member of the Rotary Club of Sydney Cove.



This is nothing like the traditional Rotary Club ... it's Members are drawn from the City - businessmen and women of all ages. This is not an old man's club.



Here is the view this morning - not a bad bit of real estate - and oh dear, it's the same view every Friday morning, apart from ...



... the fact that we sometimes have to put up with the Queen Elizabeth 2, Pacific Star, Orion, Queen Mary 2 or Sky Princess or another of those huge cruise liners that tie up here at Circular Quay.


This is just the best way to start the end of the working week - breakfast, on the water.


Yes, this was taken from the back of the John Cadman II, and the panorama is absolutely stunning, perhaps the best and certainly one of the most photographed views in the world.


Every Friday - some people would give a fortune for this, whereas we're all "at sea". It's tough.
