Touring Sydney and Bondi Beach

Jill and I spent the day in Sydney and Bondi Beach. We took the Ferry to Darling Harbour and walked along the water to the Chinese Garden of Friendship. The pavilions, waterfalls, and landscaping were beautiful. It is a peaceful garden in the middle of an otherwise busy city.

Our next stop was Chinatown. We made a brief stop in the many stores. We probably would have spent a little more time here if we weren't going to Hong Kong on Saturday.



We then took the train to Bondi Beach, one of Australia's most famous beaches. There are many outside cafes and restaurants and shops, like most beaches that you have been to. But I especially liked the rocks along the coast of this beach. We walked/ climbed along the cliffs. It was a beautiful day and the water looked amazing. There were many surfers out enjoying the water. Although the sun was out it was very windy and cool by the water....60F for all of you in the Northern Hemisphere. I am not wishing for 100 degree temperatures but you do have to put on many layers here to to make sure you are prepared for the cool and few warm moments of the day.
