Today we traveled to Newtown, the suburb where the University of Sydney is located. It's a quaint neighborhood bustling with student life, inexpensive restaurants and hip boutiques.
I love the architecture throughout Sydney: these brightly painted (without being obscene), stucco, row-house style, two-story structures. The roofline here is typical; some other fancier neighborhoods have ironwork across the fronts that are reminiscent of the French latticework. All lovely.
It was here in Newtown, though, that I made my first shoe purchase since arriving in Australia! I found the perfect little pair of flat leather sandals, olive green, with cute little ties across the toes. Oh happy day!
