Yesterday Wanda and I went for a little walk that ended up at around 15-18 miles. This is a photo looking back toward the city as we headed out to Coogee.
A typical street outside of the downtown area in Sydney. Very few people were about. I think it is because of the holiday weekend. The Queen’s birthday is celebrated on Monday.
A funky mailbox outside of a church. The steeple did not look like that on the real church.
A flock of white parrots with a slash of pink across their breasts.
Some famous nun in the middle of Centennial Park.
There wasn’t any sign at the base so we never did figure out who it is supposed to be.
Australia has black swans. The Dutch must have been very surprised when they found black swans in Australia. That old saying about black swans went right out the window!
The swans had a family.
Another pond nearby the first one had tons of black swans!
There were a bunch of cyclists enjoying the morning sunshine in the park.
Some of their bikes. Recognize anything, Chris?
Big pelicans chilling out with a bunch of other birds hanging around.
Proof that I am in Australia!
There are a LOT of funny-looking birds here.
A rookery of birds that make funny baby-crying sounds.
An old Holden Holiday Special.
Approaching the beach.
There are gobs of old VW buses and bus-trucks around Sydney. A lot of them have brush guards on the front. Yours would look good with one of those, Emily!
So much for drinking on this street! Almost to the beach!
