Mint Museum, Vivid Sydney

Sydney Mint Museum on Macquarie Street featured light projections as part of Macquarie Visions for this year's Vivid Sydney Festival. The theme of the display was Common Wealth, which looked at the economic and natural wealth that has been discovered, exploited and developed in Australia since the early accomplishments of Governor Lachlan Macquarie.

  4. Yes it is an annual event now, Ann. This was the second Vivid Sydney festival. It might be worth organising a trip to coincide with the festival next year.

  5. You are eveywhere to places so near yet so far for me, not that I cannot...

  6. Bonnie, I'm sometimes a bit like you and don't wander far away from the city, inner city or southern suburbs. The Ettamogah Pub, would for me be 'so near yet so far'. I know it's only across the other side of the city, but visiting Rouse Hill would require a big commitment and a day excursion. I promise I'll get around to it, one of these days. :)
