I went for walkies on the coast and took a series of snaps so y'all will know what beaches I'm talking about. These photos are all on the walk South, to Coogee, where I go for a nice, short, rambling walk with lots of birds, cafes, and people flying kites. Photos are actually in reverse order, which you can tell because first the sun sets over the beach, then it slowly grows brighter as I walk (backwards, I suppose) back to Clovelly...whoops. Sorry!
In other news, I am now qualified as an Apprentice International Australian Boogeyboarder. Membership in this very exclusive club is limited to those who: understand the difference between silicone, dolphin, and snorkel fins; can take a wetsuit on/off while in the backseat of a car in under four minutes; daily analyze the waves at Bondi, Bronte, Tamarama, and Clovelly (note: Clovelly doesn't actually have any); have spent over $300 on boogeyboarding equipment; and have helped others to purchase their very own boogeyboard
ing gear while proficiently using
terms like "glued seams" and loudly extolling the distinctions between the brands Roxy, Peak, Ripcurl and O'Neill's. Oh and did I mention my wetsuit is pink? Will put up a photo asap.
This whole journey, going south almost to Maroubra, takes about an hour running, one-way. If I walk, I usually end up lying on the beach (Coogee is a tourist-and kid-friendly beach, not much surfing) or sitting in a cafe.
