One could say it's a bit overrated

 The primary plan was to head north and discover a couple of coastal towns, however the weather forecast for Thursday has decided otherwise. Bondi Beach isn't too bad a choice, is it? It's just a tiny little bit overrated, because quite frankly I've seen truly breathtaking beaches... but it's still amazing!

You can't swim on Bondi. All you can do is play with the waves! YAAAAAAYYYY! (just make sure your swimming suit stays on)

Omnious clouds approaching. Heavy showers ensued, what else?

Surfers are out to play!

Also, I got sunburnt.

Peace.

could be anywhere...

It's Bondi Beach people!

Chinatown

Small, clean, cute.

anyone hungry?

A sneak peek!

Les petits poissons

Ever since I came to Sydney, I've been a regular at the excellent swimming pool located in the building where I'm staying. Laure and I are rather good at synchronized swimming. That or champions of youtube greatest fools (I hope there's no camera in the pool).

There will be pics. You knew that was coming, right?

lots of love,

Breathtaking sceneries deserve two entries!

I had to swim in there! The waves were really impressive, but some local kids encouraged me to dive in.

Just behind the beach, jungle everywhere!

This is what's on the other side.

and in between.

We spent the whole day exploring both sides of Palm Beach, wandered through bushes (don't ask about animals, there are always some, and I'm not exactly a big fan...:) ) and walked up to the lighthouse.

It feels good.

Start your Sunday with pancakes, follow up with Palm Beach!

Left of Right?

 

left for now... many waves, but doesn't the water look just inviting...

Luckily Mathildoux was there to keep my shoes while I was off playing with the waves!

Sunday morning

Must have pancakes! Bert was the main chef!

A nice and simple walk in the city

The weather here can be quite capricious. Btw, I love Perth! I love Sydney as well, but it's been keeping me on my toes every day weatherwise... Still, we managed a cute little walk through the neighbourhood of Paddington.

These restaurants look so cosy!

Yeah, they do drive differently :) I haven't tried driving here yet. I might!

I had enough of Sydney, so I went to Rome.

This is where I'm staying! I kind of like it here...

The sky's on fire

And it's different every single day!

The scene kept on changing every minute. You could stay for hours just staring at the skyline.

And having a party of course!

So, what's on the other side?

Arrived safely to Sydney yesterday evening (or afternoon, or I really don't know what time, here we go again).

The view from Laure and Bert's balcony is pretty much amazing.

let's have lunch in Sydney!

Don't forget a bottle of water!

On my last day on the Australian West coast, I travelled to Rottnest Island. What better way to experience it, than to hire a bike and go for a ride!

These Australian paths are more dangerous than you would imagine...

 the road was really long, no sign of any shade whatsoever!

And it feels so good to end up on a small beach...



These creatures are rats. I'm just hoping not to dream of them... or any other creature that I saw that day... I'm too terrified to say the details, suffice it to say that I ran one way, and "it" rand the other way. Thank God.

What a beautiful helmet. Too bad you can't see that my hair reached level 2-3 on the Jackson Five scale.

Perth was lovely. Thank you my dear friends!

See ya soon.

Describe WA!

Easy!

Port Beach, Fremantle

You think you know a better playground? Think again. (or let me know, seriously.)



It's Sunday!

How ecstatic do you usually feel when you wake up on a Sunday morning after a sleepless couple of days? Well, it turns out that in spite of the general state of slight tiredness, you can actually have a great day!

We had great time visiting the Swan Valley wineries!

A sample of an Australian forrest. I wouldn't dare going any closer, who knows what might eat me in there! :)

It was a wonderful day.

I even got cupcakes... I wish to share them with all of you!

Thank you for all your wonderful messages! Lots of love,

Down Under

I don't really know what day it is, I have no idea what time it really is, but I do know that I feel good! I arrived safely some time yesterday afternoon (I think:)), and absolutely unsuitabily clothed (hey, it was cold on the plane) hugged my dear Alma and went straight to the beach!

South Beach, South Fremantle

Dive deep, come back alive!

 And then, there was this phenomenon called Super Moon, where the Moon was really huge and close, I cannot even begin to describe how incredible it was. I don't have any photos unfortunately... Somehow I managed to stay awake all through a wonderful dinner that same evening with my lovely Aussie friends.

What's jetlag anyway? Time does not matter when you're having fun!
