I can't remember the last time I went up Sydney Tower, formerly AMP tower, formerly Centrepoint Tower (and the name I still know it by) - but I suspect it mightn't have been in this millennium. Today, though, it was absolutely gorgeous, and we could see out west all the way to the Blue Mountains of the Great Dividing Range (I love the literalism of Aussie names.) In the foreground lies Darling Harbour, and, if you look closely enough, the familiar clothes-pin hinges of the Anzac Bridge further back from that.

Anyway, the best thing about the Sydney Tower observation deck is that it's round - hence, you can get the most out of your visit by just going around and around as I did - just a few more windows, just a few more windows... until you've spent the better part of your morning up there. I'd also recommend getting some coffee and cake on the deck below, where you can keep soaking up the view with a nice cuppa.

This is My World Tuesday.

I know, this is not the greatest shot in the world, but I could hear a librarian trundling along with her trolley behind me. (It was the University of Sydney library, after all.) Not only that, but I could imagine her being roundly unimpressed with the shenanigans that ensued when my friend here discovered a hard hat hanging, somewhat incongruously, on a peg. I think he's mid-YMCA move here. Despite the dodgy dance moves, though, he's still a good, ahem, sort :D

Nevertheless, this is My World Tuesday for this week. Click here for more glimpses around our crazy planet.

My physio told me to go climbing. I always thought he was a nice chap! So, after a six month absence - injury-related for me, and baby-based for him - Cameron & I ventured to our old haunt, only to find... butterflies! I don't know what it is, but, while I associate climbing with many things, I just can't find a place for flutter-bys.

Oh, but I love my Thai food. Here is a bowl of khao soy, a lemon-and-carrot juice and an unidentified khanom at Northern Village food court, Airport Plaza. This is one big reason why I don't want to eat Thai food when I go back to Sydney... it's just not the same!
