Bondi, my home:
Part of the 1km concourse around Bondi Beach
Rollerbladers, dogs, power-chicks with their iPods on full blast, Japanese tourists in suits on a boiling hot day, you're always bound to see something. For me, it's just a great excuse to throw on the earphones and blast some Burzum or Bach.
A typical Bondi sunset
The beach faces the east, so the sun sets behind Bondi. You'll be surprised at just how many people decide to stick around the water.
A typical Bondi evening
People have returned from work, and whether in groups or alone, everyone heads to the sea. It's a great way to detox the days work.
I never get sick of watching surfers
If I get over my fear of depths, I'll do it someday too. The waves were thick this evening, and the surfers lapped it up.
To the south of Bondi
... lies Tamarama (centre in pic) and then Bronte (left in pic). Both are smaller than Bondi, Tamarama also is known as Glam-arama (guess why) and Bronte is more family orientated. PS: Tamarama is also the most dangerous beach in Australia - the rip is a shocker and can shoot you out to sea in no time at all.
Along the cliffs from Bondi, down to Bronte is a cliff-walk. Fantastic views above the sea all the way, beware of joggers! Awesome in the early morning, and early evening. You never know who you'll bump into, especially on a Sunday as it can get packed with people, iPods, barking dogs and screaming kids.
So amidst the doom of many of the things in life, things such as the above are what makes it worth being around and sticking things out. They provide my energy, my fun, my relaxation.
