The Crown

Tonight in Sydney.

 

Monday, 15th September, 2025.

 

The Crown Casino photographed at sunset this evening from High Street (near Kent Street), at Barangaroo.

 

A new vantage point I discovered this evening on my trek around Barangaroo, Millers Point and the Sydney Observatory Park.

 

So today was a disaster. After dropping off Miss 18 at the Cherrybrook Metro Station, I turned into Castle Hill Road to be met by a chasm that must have connected to Uzbekistan it was that deep. Accordingly the car was cactus, but I thought optimistically maybe it was not too bad, it was probably just a punctured tyre. Well think again.

 

I managed to coax the car to 'Tyre Power' at Dural. But after twenty minutes I was greeted by a young dude wearing a 'I Love Anarchy' T-shirt, who informed me that the whole rim had been destroyed and that a new one would have to be shipped from some place called Rüsselsheim am Main (in Germany). "And that will take ages," Mr Anarchy proclaimed in a dour tone.

 

SO, needing therapy, I gave up on work appointments and headed into the city, via my favourite cafe at Pennant Hills, to take sunset photographs at the Sydney Observatory Park, as well as Barangaroo. I now have a brand new batch of Sydney photographs!! But no car, alas.
