My wife, Pat, and I don't get to travel much and this trip to Sydney will the the first we are taking for quite awhile, 'cos we have 2 toddlers at home. 'Nuff said :-) The kids will be with Grandma for the 5 days we're away and we'll try really hard not to talk about the kids all the time we are on Holiday, which is what we often end up doing when we sneak out for an afternoon. Funny how our lives are centered round theirs. I digress... We usually like to explore the places we visit and enjoy walks (thanks Kevin!) rather than conducted tours. I do enjoy street photography, but I'm a little too shy to just walk up to people and ask if they mind being photographed, so I often end up taking photos of buildings and landmarks, leaving real street photography to the HCB-types among us. Also, no XTREME type holidays for us thank you very much....too strenuous for us lazy city folk. Kevin, we must rate ourselves somewhere between 'comatose' and 'relaxed'. I usually take colour pictures, though I have been getting better at processing some B&W lately. (Dan, if you're reading this, thanks again for getting the XTOL!) We'll try to get to the Taronga Park Zoo, the Blue Mountains and endeavour to have seafood at Jordans 'cos our national pastime is eating :-) Pat loves Ken Done and opals and shopping and ....this may turn out to be one expensive holiday ;-o Best wishes, Terence Tan Singapore
