We got a bit of a late start today after deciding to head to Manly for our first outing in Sydney. First item of business was to get our 7 day travel passes, then we hopped on a bus and headed to Circular Quay where we caught the ferry to Manly. This ferry ride came highly recommended since it takes you across most of Sydney harbor and you get great views of the Sydney Opera House and Sydney bridge.
Manly Beach was beautiful! That's it in the picture. We enjoyed watching the surfers tackle the large waves. We had lunch there, then took the ferry back to Sydney - and promptly changed our plans to check out Bondi beach since is was such a nice day. Bondi had large waves - a lots of surfers. After Bondi, we walked along the coast to Tamarama beach, then caught the bus back to Sydney where we visited the Sydney Tower for a top-down view of the city.
Check out the 5 new pictures in my Australia Picture page (Picassa) album.
So after a long day we're back at our hotel and about ready to head out for some supper. It's been a great day in Sydney!
