Went to try and find Medicare with D today and got lost again! Ended up at a cute restaurant called The Forresters which was lovely! I got ready for La Boheme at Sydney Opera House in the Joan Sutherland Theatre and it was so amazing! The interior design is stunning; there's a balcony overlooking the harbour where I drank a vodka and coke then I moved to an indoor bit to have some champagne and that had wooden roof beams which held the glass into place. Got some great pictures! I have no idea how the singers manage to sing for so long it must be so difficult. Actually understood the story with a bit of help from the program - it's basically a love at first sight story where Mimi is ill and keeps breaking up with her love Rodolfo because of his jealousy and her illness. Their friends Marcello and Musetta also keep breaking up which was made quite comical but they were brought back together in the end by Mimi's death. The set design was awesome, they had a theatre with flashing lights and a bar on stage at one point and about 30 people all singing at once. Best place to see my first opera it was so good!
