As we flew into Sydney airport, we captured our plane's shadow as it passed over one of the main city rail lines.

And, when we took off again, we had a beautiful view of the inlet just south of Botany Bay (airport site). This is a really nice place to live, and two of our good friends have a house right on one of the inner bays. As you can see, the weather for our flight to Melbourne was spectacular!

This photo is taken in Melbourne's Estonian House. It was the 90th anniversary of Estonia's independence, and since the celebration just happened to be on the evening we arrived, our dear friend, Matti Poldoja (Doj) had purchases tickets for us to attend the ceremony and dinner afterwards. Although we were tired, we were so glad that we went. Many of the folks that we'd met last year were there, and we also made some more new friends. The program was very good, and included speeches, singing, a violin solo as well as a piano solo and folkdancing.
