Back On The Chain Gang
Aug. 14th, 2007 12:13 pmA weekend escape/retreat.
Saw the latest Harry Potter at IMax on Friday night ~ complete with 3D bits & a 45 minute delay in starting time, with my sister, SarinG & Dorukai, then had my ears assaulted by the Ronnie James Dio line-up of Black Sabbath on Saturday night. Actually, Black Sabbath weren't as ear-ringingly loud as The Cure had been at the same venue on Thursday. 2 hours or so of bludgeoning metal I'd never heard before & it was GREAT!!. Thanks to my Foil for recommending I go with him & getting the tickets. Note to self: Must buy the Heaven & Hell album...
Escaped/retreated to Mudgee & surrounding countryside over Sunday & Monday for a combination roadtrip/photographic safari/headcleaning operation... coincidentally in vineyard territory. However, we only visited one winery. Returned home via Katoomba & the 3 Sisters for some vertigo-inducing photo opportunities ~ evidence of which will be posted soon.
A really nice 48 hours.
And now, back to work.
