SYDNEY PART 2



Hello all,
Sorry for not writing, I have some pretty good excuses though:
1. Half of the time that I didn’t write, I was in the middle of nowhere hiking through gorgeous nature and sleeping under the stars. No phone, no laptop, nothing.
2. Here in Australia they think Free WiFi is ridiculous.
3. I did so much. Most of my days started at 6 a.m. and by the time I got back at the hotel I was desperate for some sleeping time.

Enough excuses, time to tell about the AMAZING time I am having here.

I am going to start with our last days of Sydney.

27th of July
This day the weather was amazing again. The sun was shining bright and the blue sky was present again.
It is winter in Australia at the moment, but mostly the weather is even better than in our summer.
Give us a winter like this please.

Back to the 27th. Today we went to Manly, which is a small village part of Sydney. It is famous for its beach.
We did a biking tour through Manly and saw beautiful picturesque views that we otherwise wouldn’t have seen.
We all loved Manly beach.
Manly has an amazing boulevard with the nicest restaurants.
As you can understand, lunch was taken care of easily.
The food here is super by the way! Such nice and classy restaurants!
The thing we love also is the fact that in European countries gorgeous beaches like Manly are immediately made really touristic and spoilt, not in Australia.
In Australia everywhere we have been yet everything is so clean and as I said classy.














We also went to Bondi beach!
No lifeguards unfortunately.. ;)




28th of July
We didn’t spend this day in Sydney.
We got picked up at 7 –I believe- and drove to the Blue Mountains with a tour guide and eleven other travellers.
The mountains are called this way because of the blue glow they seem to have when you look at them.
We walked quite a heavy track through the mountains.
But it was beautiful!




































 Love,
Isabelle
