Sunday Night Fever

An interesting weekend, although nothing much happened. Andrea woke up early on Saturday to get to Coogee beach to catch some rays, she was determined not to miss the slightest bit of sun. Saturday evening we went to Josephine's and Nick's place (gorgeous dual level apartment by the way) for a bite to eat. Nick's a very good cook, but admitted that it was a Jamie Oliver recipe :) We also found out that it was the Mardi Gras here in Sydney on Saturday night (we heard the dykes on bikes fly past), along with another, probably very pink, firework display that we missed but heard.

Anyway, yesterday the weather got really hot again, even Andrea admitted that she was struggling with the heat, which is something coming from a sun worshipper like her ;) There was nothing on TV last night and i was a bit stuck as to what to do, luckily mother nature provided the solution.

The storm started at around 8 and went right through till around 1 in the morning. Being so high on this apartment complex pretty much gave us a 180 degree view of Sydney and this storm. Personally, I have never seen such an intense lightning storm, it was practically daylight ! There was also a few explosions in the distance thrown in for good measure too. Have a browse around the reader photos for the pictures. My favourites are these...
