Manly Lucia
December 7, 2006




Right after work on a Thursday, Christine and I board the 6 o'clock ferry from downtown Sydney.




gliding past the opera




gliding past a yacht race




A half hour later, we arrive in Manly.




Walking up the street, we both wonder what a "Bandicoot" might be...




At the top of the hill, we find the college building....




...in which the Swedish-Australian Chamber of Commerce is currently having their Christmas party.









drinks on the balcony in the warm sunset




Then a feast awaits, real authentic Swedish Christmas food!




Nothing is missing from this one.









soon getting ready for tonight's big event




all warming up for heavenly singing




Linda preparing Lucia's crown of candles

fuzzy proof I was doin' it as well






Christine, Ingrid




Annie, Anna...sisters




our Lucia, ready to roll




The whole prcession: Petra, Anna-Karin, Anna, Ingrid, Anna, Christine, Annie, Annika, Linda
...and myself.
