Getting to the Town Hall steps at noon, we looked for the likely traveller types at this popular meeting point...
Lo and behold, the first group we approached were indeed the intrepid VTers!
After the introductions (see pic: clockwise from left to right, Me, Chet (Chetans), Morgan, Helen (Hailun), Ken (Kendable), Mei Leng (Dragontml), Ting (Tintinlee) and Liam(Gedebage)), Liam suggested a ferry ride from Circular Quay to watson's Bay for lunch at Doyle's Fish restaurant.
We had a fabulous sunny day for the last day of winter with temperatures at around 23 degrees celsius. Food was great with the bulk of us plumping for Fried Barrumundi fillet with chips! Afterwards we went for a nice walk up to the South Heads (entrance to Port Jackson) for a view of the Tasman sea and Sydney harbour back to the city.
We then returned to town for drinks and a meal at Jet cafe/bar at the QVB Building where we we met by Mei Leng's friend Celine, and Chet's wife Shilpa...
All in all we had a fantastic time meeting people from around the World, listening to great stories and making new friends - a perfect introduction to the World of VT!
Thanks to Helen for organising this and thanks to everyone else for turning up!
