Our destination is Royal Gardenia, which is in Bilpin not far from the Blue Mountains...

The week had been very hot and humid in Sydney, and Thursday afternoon greeted us with a typical Sydney summer storm.

The monthly late night drives are really starting to gain momentum. This month was a bit different. It started out as a Night drive to Bilpin. As well as a drive, we had late night dessert and coffee. Summer in Sydney is a great time for night drives. The weather is pleasant and its a great time for convertibles or sunroofs to be open....
