Gladesville Park


At Gladesville park, the inner western suburb of Sydney is a beautiful sandstone cottage that dated back to the 1880's. Classified by the National Trust, "Rockend" is where A.B.'Banjo' Paterson lived as a young man with his grandmother.

Today the Banjo Paterson Cottage operates as a restaurant which is popular for functions and wedding. I attended a wedding there a few years ago and it is indeed a wonderful place to host a special event with its water view, pier and garden.

Orchard Road Christmas 2009 Light-up

Image
The theme for this year's Orchard Road annual Christmas light-up is called "A Christmas All Decked out". You see giant Santa and Santa's mouse deers lined up along the road. The design are pretty creative these years. There were numerous giant mouse deers dressed up in colourful outfit in different poses. On the trees, there were bright globes together with a laser type tear drops creating some motion to the decoration. This year there are a few shopping malls that are nearly opened which helped to make Orchard Road light-up even more exciting namely Ion Orchard, 313 and Central. Merry Christmas to all and have a safe and happy holidays. Best, Stan
