The walk to Bondi

So yesterday was the first sunny day we had. It was beautiful. Nice enough that people were at the beach and tons of people were surfing (with wet suits of course). Blake and I decided to be touristy and take the walk from Coogee to Bondi. A good 6 mile walk that took probably 4 hours. It was amazing though. A beautiful coastline. Every now and then you would pass little inlets of small beaches. Tons of people were out either walking their dogs or playing soccer and rugby with the kids. Every place closes on the weekends, so it was nice to see everyone in the town out with their families. Today, we are moving into the new place. There is no internet there, so it might be a while until I post again. Tuesday starts orientation and then class starts the following week. Very exciting.

Note to self: adjusting to people driving on the left side of the road is more difficult than you would think. I am constantly looking to my left when crossing the road. Even people walk on the sidewalk on the left side. I tried to go up an escalator and by nature went to the right, when the up side was on the left. Who knew that we were so accustomed to everything on the right?
