Rain!
Harbour Views
Remember Melbourne last year? It was so dry that I took a photograph of a flower, purely because I hadn't seen one in months. Sydney, on the other hand, is lush and green; as green a city as I've ever seen. The downside of that is it rains a lot. It has been raining for 48 hours, more or less without interruption, and is forecast to rain for another three to four days. At least it's still warm. This slightly soggy kookaburra tried to find some shelter on the Jacaranda tree directly outside our balcony.
In-between the showers, yacht races continue. This huge yacht (an Open 60, maybe?) wasn't actually racing but cut through the rest without any difficulty. Even the ferry had to wait.
