Harbor

   We don't really know how we'll like life without the Harbor.  It's just gorgeous and there's always something interesting to watch.  Even when it rains, we love watching the water, wind, light, boats and wildlife.  Whenever we can, we go exploring.  Some recent photos -

The Mosman ferry on Mosman Bay.  It's about a 10 minute ride across the Harbor to Circular Quay (central ferry hub in the city).

There are yacht clubs all around the harbor and it's common to see these little "flotillas."  It's amazing how young some of the kids are out racing by themselves.

 Hermit Bay, a great spot to moor for lunch and swimming.

 This little guy just moved from France (his dad works with Chris) and loves to play with the big kids.  Mia and Sam are picking up bits of French from him.

Rock fishing has to be the most dangerous pasttime in Australia.  Unfortunately, you hear about these guys dying whenever the surf gets rough.

The type of boat is called a moth.  Sam wants one.  No surprise there.

These are fun to watch.  The people sailing have to be very athletic to hang on the sides and then run across the boat to tack.

Great spinnaker

Sydney Harbour Regatta underway

It's always fun to get a water view of "home."

    We're always thinking about the water when we contemplate going home.  We've amused ourselves lately by trying to think of a place in CH where we can dine with a water view.  Funny, sad little game to amuse ourselves.  At least it's funny now....
