day 26: Bondi Beach & NP

Today, I joined Benoit to the city when we would meet one of his friend from Tasmania. We went to eat a (small) salmon salad at Bondi Beach. The place is a little overrated to me and people are packed on the beach... sounds like "la Cote d'Azur", in a little less crowded-way, with a little bit of US, like these body builders having their training space out in the open in front of the beach... The Life Saver's Club, their tent and the safety flags on the beach, felt like in "Baywatch" sponsored by DHL without Hoff and Pamela Anderson...

We dropped Ben's friend to the Train station in the city and joined Lod & Nico for a nice walk in a National Park North of Sydney. This place is a nice patch of Nature near the city. As the day is hot, we aimed for the ocean... a 1-hour walk, walking like tourists in the sun, wearing thongs, without water... was a lot of fun :)

Well, as Lody and Nico had the surfer's reflexes to put all boards in the van, it seemed like a natural thing to finish the day surfing nearby. Awesome session until very dark, dark enough for trigerring the stupid question : aren't sharks supposed to go out at night ?

Went back to the house, pasta, jam (music), poker...
