I have been wearing my poor legs down to stumps, & further crippling my buggered knee!
The sights in the city are amazing.
The noise is utterly horrifying.
Some things are totally beautiful.
Some people are totally beautiful also.
Howver, some people are also beyond ugly! In all senses of the word!
Here, is reportedly, Australia's tallest Christmas Tree.
It stands in QVB, which is the Queen Victoria Building.
The tree is adorned with Swarovsky Crystals.Here, a most magical Elephant, with Rider. I love this shop!!
Sheep, all your heart could desire! This shop is filled with all things animal.
Should your heart desire ~ Monkeys galore!
Crocs!
Aboriginal Art for sale.
This speaks for itself, somehow...
Time waits for no man...

I have previously seen this clock work it's magic with the pageantry!
Beloved Brother returns to his homeland today.
Beloved Brother returns to his homeland today.
I will miss him sorely.
We have indeed had a lot of fun.

Lovely pics Meggie and glad Henri had a good time. Hope he has a safe trip back.
You captured so much truth in your opening lines. Loved your photos.
Beautiful tree and wonderful clock.
Christmas is here.
I cannot listen the song, don't play.
ciao ciao
Where are you? Sounds very swank!
Mike, Henri thanks you, for your kind wishes.
Ian, Big noisy cities can be quite intimidating!
Teodo, Scary to realise how close Christmas really is now!
Molly, The Christmas Tree is in the Queen Victoria Building, in downtown Sydney.
The tree is actually about 4 levels high, up through the centre of the builiding.
It is a beautiful old building, which is gradually being restored to former glory.
How do you pronounce "buggered" as in knee? .... like bug or booger? I am assuming the latter....but I'm ready for an Australian lesson in words!
what a great tour - thanks!
I know you and your brother have enjoyed each other... thanks for taking us to the city with you. Nice Christmas tree!
Lovely pictures meg.
I haven't been many places in the world but I think I've been in that building - without Christmas tree cause it was June.
Love the sheep best - especially their attire!
Hope you are feeling better in the mouth area.( healing nicely ? )
What great photos of our town Meggie - good to visit and good to come home from!
I lovce that building, we will be in Sydney over the new year so will be down there for sure!!
I like that song, we have it by Jools Holland and someone whose name escapes me. Very catchy and accurate!
A very obvious reminder that I need to get myself into gear and deal with Christmas now before the shops get louder and uglier!
hurrah..enjoy yourself
You delighted me with these photos. I do love window shopping, and these are from sort of fairy world.
Best wishes on growing those stumps back!
