Bondi Beach

Today we took tours on a double decker bus around Sydney. We also took one to Bondi Beach. First we took one to the museum and looked at a lot of cool stuff. Then we walked to another bus station and I got a snack. It was Maxibon Bits (Dibs) and a Raspberry soda. After a while we got on a bus to Bondi Beach. We ate at Gabby’s Café. Then we took a million mile walk (not really but it felt like it). I had to go pee the whole time. When I saw the bathroom I thought it was the fastest I ever ran. Then we walked to Bronte Beach. There were lots of precautions. There were huge waves. Some surfers were actually surfing the waves that were huge. Then we walked back. After that we got on the bus back home. I felt sick. I took a nap on the bus. Then we had to transfer to another bus. We waited a while and then the bus came and then we went back to the hotel.

Sydney reminds me with a lot of San Francisco with all the boats in the bay, the bridge and the hills all rolling down to the water. We stopped at the Australian Museum b/c we thought it would tell us why so many of the Australian animals are deadly. It didn't. But it did have this cool interactive table with some of Australia's biggest threats and a saltwater croc jumps out at you. After that we took a short walk to catch the Bondi Beach Bus. It was way too cold to swim. So we took the sea-sculpted cliff walk to Bronte Beach. At Bondi & Bronte beach, they have these pools built right into the cliffs which are filled w/ocean water. The waves crash right into them. The surf was rough & high this day. It was an unbelievable sight. This is where the kids take lessons, swim team practices, etc. The scenery was awe inspiring - it changed every few seconds.

Weather: Around 70 degrees F, overcast and VERY windy. It didn't feel 70 at all.
