Sydney opera house

To Gladstone park in Balmain on the bus to meet Candy, Jonah and Arwyn. They were pleased to see us and liked the sweets. The priest showed us St  Augustine's church which has an old organ. We went to the house which is lovely and bought some books at the independent book shop in Balmain before bus back and a swim in Petersham pool. Saw Ann and had dinner at b n b. a night to remember at the Opera house. Cav and Pag in a great production we had seen. At the cinema. Excellent singing, acting and playing the orchestra sounds really well and chorus excellent. Good conductor. The tenor was a bit wooden at first. It as the first night and we met a Melbourne couple hole we were having our brut rose. He came from Verna the village Mascagni based the opera on. Thanks to the kids for a wonderful present. We got a train back straight away and had a cold beer on our return.
