I remember at the millennium we were shown New Year as it arrived first in the South Pacific and then watched as the world celebrated and time moved across the globe. The most spectacular New Year's celebration were those of Sydney Harbour, and they continues to be so, how can you beat that stunning setting with the iconic bridge. It is estimated that 1.6 million came to watch down at the harbour and it always features on the news here. For those who like numbers this year there were 10,000 aerial fireworks, 25,000 shooting comets and 100,000 pyrotechnic events.
This stamp is celebrating Sydney itself and there is a cake involved -
One of the stamps of the second series of 'Road Trip' which appeared in 2013 featuring Gavin Ryan's artwork which
makes me smile.
An entry to Sunday Stamps hosted by Violet Sky's See It on a Postcard here.
