Bondi Beach


We had a nice beach day today.  We hiked 4.5 miles from the beach town of Coogee to Bondi Beach.  In addition to the beautiful coast, we did get to observe a little of the Aussie beach life.  There were lots of families out enjoying the water.

We took a public transit bus there and back which is a fun people watching opportunity.

We had a nice picnic lunch on the beach and enjoyed watching the locals play frisbie, beach volleyball and kick around soccer and rugby balls.

Right now we are enjoying a gin and tonic and will soon take a ferry to another beach town Manly for dinner.

Update - After I posted this, I read a news article about snakes and sharks on the beach.....

The famous pool on Bondi Beach 

Lots of surfers and a few swimmers , the water and air were about 70 degrees 


Hard to see, but there are children on paddle boards racing on Coogee Beach
