Yesterday Cunard’s Queen Mary 2 came to Sydney for the first time. I think everyone who worked or lived in the CBD went over to Woolloomooloo during lunch to check her out. After pilates, I cut through the botanic gardens to get a peak from the Domain myself. People were everywhere, but I weaseled my way into a viewing good spot.

I snapped a great shot of the ferry Lady Northcott passing in front of QM2. While I have never been on Queen Mary, I have had pleasure of travelling aboard Lady Northcott. I took her from Circular Quay to the Taronga Zoo…very regal indeed.

Eggscuse me, but…

Why are raw eggs next to the cereal in my local grocery store, and not in some refrigerated section of the market? Upon bringing them home, do Australians leave them on the counter or put them in the fridge?
