Watsons Bay


The suitcase is clearly not prepared for any sort of beach activities. But I had flat rubber shoes and sunglasses. Those were good enough for a walk by Watsons Bay. By the time the rain finally decided to take a break and let the sun come through, I had finished the book and was ready to ponder over some chapters.

After admiring the sunshine in a whole lot less humidity than what I'm used to at home, I trotted off to Watsons Bay for a spot of fresh air before dinner. Okay, nothing will beat the stunning views along Great Ocean Road, but out here in Sydney, I'll take whatever sea views I can get. Plenty of luck so far.

Plenty of people were making merry at Camp Cove. The weather held, but the sunshine didn't quite do the same. Storm clouds could be seen rolling back in for more wet weather tonight. Oh happiness. I'm really not a mall person. It's much better for the mind to be starting at the sea and enjoying the natural sights of a destination. I've nothing to buy at the shops and if I had gone against my instincts and hit the shops, I'd have been an extremely dissatisfied girl. There's something missing if I'm here and don't even bother to travel a short distance to the bay that I didn't get to see during the previous stay in the city.
