The answer...

Watching a big ship (well done Ants and Jodi):



Who would have thought that a boat would make such a splash!

Russ and Al and I caught the Bus to see the big boat...



Al had his photo taken with the stern of the QE2...



Then we went off to find the QM2 (hard to miss really)...



And waited with everyone else to see the fireworks...



The whole thing was kinda surreal. My friend Seumas suggests that it's all about how we Aussies love a spectacle, just like the ancient Romans loved their gladiator games. The harbour is our Colosseum, and the pyrotechnician is our gladiatorial warrior. Give him the thumbs up and let him live Morris, he put on a good show!!!

Hey,
Sounds like a fun time, I saw and boarded the original Queen Mary in the USA when I was a kid, it was pretty impressive (although we did exchange one of our days at disneyland to see it)
