    Sydney Opera House

    What better way to end a stay in Sydney than with watching a show at the Sydney Opera House? 💕
    We had managed to get tickets for the world premiere of "Mountain". It is a cinematic and musical odyssey and a collaboration between the Australian Chamber Orchestra and the director Jennifer Peedom. It evolves around the people's fascination with mountains and the beauty and danger that comes from them.
    We spend the morning with shopping for souvenirs and when it was nearly time we enjoyed a glass of wine at the Opera Bar in the sun. 💕
    It was a dream come true when we finally got to walk into the Opera House to find our places right at the front in the third row. 💕
    It is such a beautiful and impressive building both from the outside an from the inside. Before the actual performance began Jennifer Peedom, Willem Dafoe the actor who did the voice-over for the movie (he played the joker in Batman and also the author in the Fault in our Stars and in many more movies as well) and the musical director came on stage and said a few words about the movie and the journey they underwent to make it.
    The performance itself was magical and the best way to end our trip. We were enchanted with the amazing live performance of the Australian Chamber Orchestra and the movie on the big screen. 💕
    Everyone visiting this amazing city should definitely take the chance and see the magic that performances in the Sydney Opera House hold within them. 💕
