Can you smell the aromas?

Ahhhhh what you all have been waiting so patiently for, pictures! It has taken awhile, but Adam and I went and did something this weekend that I finally documented with my camera. On Sunday, the Aroma festival was going on down at the rocks an old part of Sydney that is across from the Opera House. The festival was advertised as “a divine world of coffee, chocolate, tea and spice” ummmm yes please!


This is the first picture taken upon arriving at the festival and deserves its own special comment, because right after I took this picture a guy came up to me and the following commentary took place. P.S. I'm doing this from memory, but this is more or less the wording.

Stupid guy:"Excuse me, are you by any chance American?"
Me: "Yes?"
Stupid guy: "I thought so, that is such a typical American thing to do. To take a picture where you are trying to do something funny with an object."
Me: "What?"
Stupid Guy: "I went on a tour one time where the guide was American, and she was so embarrassed by all the Americans and there stupid posing for pictures like holding up the leaning Tower of Pisa, and that she was always trying to pull away from being considered an American.
Me: "Well honestly I don't think that posing for pictures like that is considered an American thing to do, because I've seen many other non American people doing similar things."
Stupid guy: "blah blah blah I'm a dirty guy
Adam: "Okay lets go"

And yes, I was annoyed for a while after this conversation.



The picture of Marilyn Monroe is made completely out of cups of coffee with different levels of milk in them. Pretty cool, huh? Last year they did the Mona Lisa.



You were not supposed to take pictures of these masks, but we did anyway! Even after the lady kind of yelled at Adsy for trying!























It never gets old to look at the beautiful architecture that is the famous opera house.










There were camel rides for $5, but we didn't partake. Too bad, I kind of wish we had now.
