This is the story of 2 couples taking a step back from Corporate Canada life to fulfill a lifelong dream. This blog is by no means a “How To” on planning and executing a journey around the world, but rather a sharing of our experiences and feelings from 2 perspectives as we fumble our way around the world on a journey of a lifetime

Bronte to Bondi Coastal Walk


The weather in the morning started out as it had the last couple mornings, a bit rainy and cloudy, but after we finally got moving it looked like the sun was going to win the fight through the clouds so we figured we better take advantage of the day and GET OUTSIDE! We decided that we would head to Sydney's famous Bondi beach again and spend the day relaxing in the sun and bronzing of course. We had heard that there was a really nice coastal walk that you could do from Bronte Beach to Bondi which offered spectacular views of the ocean perched on top of massive rocky cliffs. The entire walk is only about 3km so not strenuous by any means so we decided that we would take the train/bus to Bronte and then just end at Bondi for the day. 


We started by grabbing a coffee at one of the many cafes along the beach strip in Bronte and then started out on the walk. The views along the walk did not disappoint to say the least! Simply describing them would probably not do them any justice so instead we will share some photos

After ending the walk in Bondi beach we set up shop on the edge of the surf. On top of being a pretty and trendy beach spot, Bondi is also a great place for people watching. It is filled with locals looking to get noticed, backpackers with stark white skin and fresh off the plane foreigners trying to learn how to surf. We spend the afternoon bronzing, swimming, people watching and shopping along the strip. We even got to witness the famous Bondi Beach Surf Rescue Ream complete a rescue which was filmed for their reality T.V show, although it was a pretty boring rescue really. All and all a very perfect Sydney day!
