Mike and I had forgotten that we wanted to have breakfast at Bill’s, a café mentioned in a Rudy Maxa travelogue about Sydney. It seemed that we could do this and continue on the bus to the famous Bondi beach. We got our all day bus/ferry/train pass and headed out. Unfortunately we got off the bus too soon, and found ourselves hiking up hills on Victoria Street to get to the address we had. And there it was, just as we saw it in Rudy’s film. We ordered the Ricotta banana pancakes with honey butter. So yummy and worth the climb up the hill.
With better directions we found the bus to Bondi Beach. It is a beautiful day and the beach is sparkling. Surfers, swimmers, old men in speedo’s. Both of us dabbled our toes in the water. Too cold for me, but Mike said he could swim there. We walked along the edge of the beach and up along the rocks. It is just like the travelogues.
We get back on the bus to travel to Watson’s Bay, where there is a ferry. It is a beautiful spot. We have a really fast lunch and get on the ferry to return to the Circular Quay. We have dinner again at Darlington Quay and back to the hotel.
