Once again, my words of thanks to Tourism New South Wales for organising the contest "100 Things that make Sydney so ... Sydney" in partnership with Singapore Airlines. My winning entry to the contest gave me the opportunity to visit Sydney in May 2011 and experience autumn in Sydney. I was in Sydney in time for one of my friends' wedding, to celebrate Mother's Day with my mother who visited Sydney with me, and to spend my birthday in Sydney.
Many thanks to Oaks Goldsbrough for sponsoring three nights of accommodation. I have enjoyed my stay!
The photographs from my visit are made possible thanks to Canon for awarding me with a Canon IXUS 1000HS camera.

Thanks Jammie, it was a special trip since I celebrated Mother's Day, my birthday and my good friend's wedding on that trip.
