This past weekend I went to Sydney both Saturday and Sunday night for some events. Saturday night about 10 Ihousers went to Olympic Park (where the 2000 Sydney Olympics were held) for a footie game (AFL-Australian Football League) where my Aussie friend's high school friend was playing. He plays for the Sydney Giants. They unfortunately lost to a Melbourne team, but did well for being a brand new program.
On Sunday, we returned to Sydney for the "Vivid Light Show". It is the third annual year of the Light show in Sydney and it supposedly gets better every year. It was the 2nd night of the 18 day show where Sydney buildings and icons have lights shown on the buildings! The Opera House portrayed a rippling effect and had an image a women crawling around it. Other buildings were brightly colored and there were some interactive lights. It is had to explain, but hopefully the pictures help you visualize it. However, I don't think the pictures do it justice and it was one of the coolest, most unique things I have seen!

| The faster you pedal, the brighter the lights. A bit of engineering :) |
