Sydney, Australia is a dream destination for me. A place I have always wanted to go and one that I hope my family can travel to soon. When I heard about this fabulous ‘summer’ festival happening in what will be the coldest month of Canada’s Winter I was even more intrigued. I love the idea that on the other side of the world people are celebrating summer, music,theatre, dance, music, and visual arts while I will be bundled up in my best winter gear.

The best city in the world!!
I’ve been to Sydney twice now, my daughter lives there and both times it was the end of January. I love to be able to escape the freezing cold, lots of beaches and picnics everywhere, fantastic, I loved every minute.
Truly a city I am sure will be an awesome vacation when I go there for sure.
