Rose Bay

Today we walked all the way to the beach at Rose Bay, where Rusty learnt to swim! We had lunch at the Lynn Park Cafe and then sat on the grass for a few hours to restore our energy before the long walk home.

Here is a location map:

Sea plane! I haven't yet persuaded Bruce to go on this...

Rusty, so serious!

Bruce, also serious!

How am I going to get that stick?

Oooh it's cold!

Thanks for helping Daddy.

Get me out of this water!!

Not impressed!

Double Bay (Double Pay!)

Bruce had to work again today, so I explored the notoriously expensive Double Bay (hence the nickname Double Bay, Double Pay), Point Piper and Rose Bay.

On my way I stumbled upon Blackburn Gardens, in which the Double Bay Library is located, the Murray Rose sea pool and also Felix Bay beach at the end of Point Piper.

Here is a map of my route:

Woollahra Municipal Council offices: pretty nice!

...and the view isn't bad either! Looking down towards the Murray Rose sea pool
