See that little sailing boat, on the left, just going under the bridge? I'm on it! Actually I was at the helm! Coordinating the intersection of boat-bridge-helicopter took some doing, I can tell you ...

When I showed this to Henry he said "Ian on boat with Harbour Bridge" Then ran and got his Ian car and held it to the screen. So sweet! Er, how did you take a photo of the boat from the helicopter, when you were on the boat? Did you use a big mirror? In which case, why is the photo not back to front?

I recognised the helicopter flying overhead, and contacted the person on it and asked them if they had happened to take any photos as they flew over the bridge!
