Season is great and the beaches are so inviting. So we decided to take this Bondi-Coogee coastal walk which goes through some of the most famous and beautiful beaches of Sydney. The walk starts from Bondi beach which is easily accessible by public transport - a train till Bondi junction and a short bus ride from there to the beach. We reached Bondi by 9am in the morning. It was nice and calm and after a bit of fooling around on the beach, we started the walk which is well defined by sign boards.

Jenolan caves is a must visit location near Sydney. It's close to blue mountains, so can be combined with the blue mountain visit.

Back on our way to Jenolan and reached there by 1pm - I would suggest to come to Jenolan directly if you want to see more than 1 caves. Due to limited time and cave tour timings, we were able to accommodate only a sing...

Sydney seems to be just waking up after the holiday season. Everybody still seems to be in the holiday mood. Weather's great .. it's supposed to be best time of the year .. :) We headed to this beach called Dee why which is on the northern side of Sydney city .... totally loved it. Walked on the beach and watched the surfers with their boards and parachutes dotting the skyline. There were holiday makers all around, kids eating ice creams, playing on the skate boards, the cafe's overflowing with people. Was a nice evening to linger in the holiday season for sometime more ..
