Goin upt'Manley

Well last day in Sydney was a blast.. headed over to Manley on the ferry to see Joey before I left for Melbourne. Once we got there (Me & Lee had hangovers) we headed out to Whale Beach, which was about a hours drive from Manley. Whale beach is a lovely quiet beach, nothing like the packed Bondi beach... Met some of Jo's mate's who'd we'd met the previous week.. good guys... Then did a bit of body surfing... I first tried this in Bondi and half of the ocean went up my nose but this time I was much better and managed to catch a wave!! Though the waves were much harder and bigger here so We were all knocked to the floor a few times... We followed this by a great game of volleyball... well, more like keep the ball in the air as long as poss.. all good fun. Then headed to Joeys house to meet her temporary housemate.. Tyrone.. a fantastically excitable Staffordshire Bull Terrier.. slobber everywhere!! After saying our goodbyes to Jeppy - headed back to Bondi to pack!!! Now off to Melbourne and the Great Ocean Road...

Oh - just before I finish - never got chance to do the Blue Mountains.. I had planned two days to do them... the first day was Sydneys coldest November in recorded history and the second day the mountains had a huge Bush Fire - have put them on my to do list for my next Oz Holiday!!


PS: Bought some Raybans... 40 quid BARGAIN!!!!!
