Today was the best day yet since my arrival in Sydney! We walked around Bondi Beach, taking in the view of the water, the sound of the crashing waves, the warmth of the sun, the sand, the coastal cliffs, the surfers, the flowers, the breeze.... This is the reason one COMES to Australia.
It was perfect, except for the little pink sunburn I got on my shoulders, despite my fastidious re-application of SPF 45. Perhaps we've got that great big hole in the ozone layer over the entire continent of Australia to thank for that?
After lunch in Bondi Junction, at Cafe Bondi (food review to come), we hopped on the bus and rode through the thoroughly charming neighborhoods of Woollahra and Paddington. Residential streets, lined with sidewalk cafes, art galleries, little shops, and old historic churches nestled in amongst the chicly restored row-houses. Definitely need to go there again and walk around.
