Sisters

It was a day dominated with sisters in one form or another.

We met up with former neighbours from our childhood. We had lunch at the Kent Hotel in Carlton. It was three pairs of sisters catching up on childhood events and memories. The time just flew. Sandra and Cheryl arrived just after Michele and I so we had a chat with them about how they are now and current events. Then Katie and Maggie arrived and we began talking about shared memories of our lives from the 50's to the 70's in Beaumaris.

Michele and I were rushing off to meet up with another friend to see their apartment in Docklands but plans are made to catch up again before I head back to NYC. The apartment was fabulous with great views of the city and parkland and way out of our price range!

The next "set" of sisters were Sue and her sister Sally who was down from Gosford NSW and who I hadn't seen since she stayed with Sue and I in NYC. We met up at a restaurant/ bar in called After the Tears. The other reason for going there was to hear the Stiletto Sisters. What fun! They look great and sound great. The link to a youtube video clip does not do them justice really. They circulated amongst the tables singing and playing and engaging us all.


It was a great way to end our day of sisters together!
