A lovely but short visit from our niece Louise and her husband Andrew. It was Andrews first visit to Gods Own Country and we really managed to throw the book at him, climate wise. From the heat and bush fires of Western Australia to the heat and humidity in NSW and currently the cyclones in Queensland.
Following a quick visit to Bondi Beach we arrived at Watsons Bay for lunch.
Doyles restaurants and hotel.
An after lunch stroll to South Head, looking across to North Head.
Another day, heading through the mountains with a stop at the Mount Tomah botanical gardens.
Camera fishing in yellow shorts, no wonder the fish disappeared.
This was about the only view possible of the Three Sisters at Katoomba which didn't include thousands of Asian tourists.
A very nice outdoor late lunch in Leura ........
....... back home and checking out the days photographs.
We drove up to Terrigal and returned home via Spencer and Wisemans Ferry.
A nice lunch over looking the beach.
One of Andrews lasting memories of Australia must be his encounter with the efficiency of Australia Post. While in Western Australia he ordered some fishing equipment from South Australia to be delivered to us here in New South Wales. One parcel arrived quite quickly but the second took a big detour. It arrived in Sydney but then decided to divert to Western Australia before coming all the way back to North Richmond. Something to have a laugh about later.
We had a lovely time with our visitors, lots of laughter and reminiscing but all over too quickly.
