Darling Harbour #2

 

 go crackers with contraptions????  I've no idea what it means either
 
 the Pyrmont Bridge is open again for people-traffic
 
 front of the Maritime Museum
 
with some curvy reflections
 

hope yours is 'half full'
 


guess these can be used for a price when relaxing at this restaurant?  I doubt they're sitting there for decoration; another row above these.  Thanks to Lisa, Lisa Gordon Photography  first hand up to offer the answer to their name; they're hookah-pipes. 

thought this 'chandelier' most unique

    Carole, I'm guessing a hooka pipe. At least here in NY, it is legal, and they have things that look similar to these in bars/clubs. So I guess you can get a drink and have a little hooka!!

    These are wonderful photographs. I especially love the view in the first one.

    Have a wonderful day!

    Lots of interesting things to see along the waterfront. I suppose if I were to take a short drive south to the San Francisco waterfront the same could be said. I don't know what the fascination is for water pipes but then, I don't smoke.

    I like the reflections and also the tall glass. Nice composition.
    The hookah pipes are called water pipes overhere. A friend of mine has one and he smokes his pipe.

thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
