Pete and I are enjoying our walks along the streets of Bondi...the older apartment buildings are very attractive and there are so many interesting new blocks of apartments...

On our way to Sydney to celebrate Carlota's 50th birthday....

                   It was so interesting, a different flight path...not to Melbourne as usual....in this photo we are    

                   approaching Adelaide and had terrific views of Spencer Gulf and Gulf St Vincent...

Our first view of Adelaide...

I enjoyed the views going over the mountains....

Sydney....

Behind Peter is the building where we are staying in an AirBNB apartment..it is only a 10 minute walk to the beach and to Phil's...the apartment is very comfortable.

After settling in to our apartment we walked down to the beach....it looked fabulous!

It was at 5pm...

We met Phil at North Bondi beach and took his dog Gala for a walk while Phil had a quick swim. Such a cute dog.

The view from the North side of Bondi Beach...where there are the children's ocean pools...

An amazing old apartment building across the road from the beach....

The shopping and restaurant strip opposite the beach...all in all an exciting day.

 

This evening we celebrated Julie's birthday at our monthly Cheap and Cheerful gathering...we had a wonderful time at Tash and Hugh's home for nibbles and dessert and at the Tamarind Restaurant for a delicious feast of Thai food.

I love to see them enjoying a book together...

 

Balloons are always so much fun...Pete and I are down in Cowaramup for a few days...
