It has been gloriously sunny all week again in Sydney and there were shadow shots waiting to be taken every few steps .... again, like last week, the first part is my shadow shots, then there will be an update of our holidays - I hope you enjoy both!!
strolling round Drummoyne last Sunday afternoon
again in Drummoyne - I was actually trying to take a photo of the window!!
Malcolm found this shell on the beach - don't worry, we put it back!
lots of the houses have wrought iron decorations
looking through a gunsight at Watson's Bay
breakfast at our cottage in the Hunter Valley earlier in the week
As ever, do visit Hey Harriet for more Shadow Shots - especially as she had included one of mine in this week's collage!!
On Thursday, it was one of those mornings ..... held up in traffic, then having breakfast in a local cafe so that we could use the Internet only to find their computer was down, rushing off to another place, then not being able to find the photos, rushing to get the ferry, only for it to go sailing past, because it was already full ........
However, the photos have been found, so back to the Hunter Vally and Malcolm and the barbecue
note his smart new boots!
On Tuesday we went to Morpeth - no we didn't pop back home to Malcolm's birthplace, but went to see the NSW version!! On the way, we passed through Largs (the original one is on the west coast of Scotland!)
On reaching Morpeth, I was delighted to find that I wouldn't have to stand on top of any mountains!
On Thursday, once we eventually got on the ferry(!) we went to Watson's Bay ....
The path we were on looked down on to the nudist beach, but of course I averted my eyes ... ok, I didn't, and I can tell you that there were several men hanging out on the beach ........
Oh sorry, were you expecting a photo of nude men (I did think about it ....) This little rock pool was only two inches in diameter, with a tiny, tiny clam in it
Malcolm was determined to win the sandcastle-building competition!!
a glorious Friday afternoon on Bondi Beach
Our time here in Sydney is almost finished - on Tuesday we head to Singapore for eight days. Thanks again to everyone who has left comments and sent e-mails - I will catch up with you when we get home! They say when you visit, you should only take away memories (and photos) and leave only footprints .....
Lots of love from Anne and Malcolm xx
