Two weeks ago an email went around the Sydney office informing us of a lazy Friday afternoon harbour cruise for all of the hard working Sydney Oomph team.

If you live in Sydney you'll know it but if you don't, let me tell you it's been raining for days and this morning was no exception. I had an early morning demo in Surry Hills but by the time I got back to the office around 1pm the skies had started to clear. To give you an example of the afternoon and early evening that followed here's a shot taken as we returned to our starting point.

Suffice it to say I was blown away with the amazing scenery on Armidale's doorstep. I'll write some more soon but here's some images taken during this very quick visit.

Yass to Hay

So it's up bright and early and our first day or re-packing up the car, so it takes us forever. We finally check out 10am. The Colonial Lodge staff were great, the rooms clean and tastefully decorated but Kelly found it a bit noisy being so near the road with lots of trucks rumbling by and a very noisy compressor, perhaps on the in-room fridge, going all night. I slept fine :-)
