| She can have her Bridge Climb :) G'day all,
My wife came back from Sydney last week. My daughter and I chipped in and sent her of with my cousin, for her 50th birthday. She wanted to climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
She had the time of her life, but I can think of better ways to enjoy myself than climbing a bridge 
Hear are some pics of her Having fun.
If you look carefully at the full photo of the bridge you can see a group of people doing the climb. The turn around when they reach the flag.
She visited the markets while there and bought me back some bits and pieces to reverse engineer.

| Beautiful City, Sydney. That 4th picture would sure make a great fretwork picture. It looks like post cards I have seen. Glade your wife and cousin had a good time. When do you get to fly the coop for some time away?

| Ah good pictures and good thing she made it back home safe. I can also think of things to do other than climbing a bridge, but as long as she loved it you are golden!

| Hi John
I know what you mean I thought that but ended up doing it and loved it so if you ever come over this this side of our wonderful land you must do it.

| Hi John,
Looks like the little lady had a good time over here on the Eastern side.
The bridge would make a good scroll project. I have seen a combo of the bridge and opera house with a clock by a fellow called 'Schultz'. Will have to chat with a fellow scroller here in West Wyalong and borrow his book.
Jim
