Today I am flying solo. I am off from work and the sun is finally shining in Sydney. It feels strange but exciting to see blue skies after having so much rain. I am dying to get out and about so I take myself off for a really long walk, wanting to soak up as much vitamin D as possible and to increase my step count for the week. I canโt do the Bondi to Coogee walk as it will be packed on a Sunday. So I decide to walk to Watsonโs Bay via the residential streets, hoping to encounter as few people as possible. I pass Macquarie Lighthouse and from there I walk to Camp Cove, just past Watsonโs Bay. Itโs a little beach that is not as well know, unless you live here in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. I take the South Head heritage trail to Hornby Lighthouse and return to Watsonโs Bay. Here I take the coastal walk from the Gap Lookout and return home via Rose Bay.
As well as being a beautiful walk and a good distance for gaining the steps, it also gives me the opportunity to take many photos, most of which I can add to my future posts for my Doors of WordPress and my Friday Flowers โบ๏ธ.
I hope you enjoy some of the scenic shots from today. This is my happy place. Walking in beautiful weather, with stunning scenery and the chance to see what I can photograph.









All in all, my walk was about 3.5 hours with a lunch stop. My feet are walked off me but I feel great for having done it and I can now put the feet up at home.
I hope you all are able to have a lovely Sunday wherever you are. Take care and keep safe,
Wayne โ๐ฝ

I loved your Syndey photos. 30 years ago my husband and I took our two kids who were then age 2 and 4 to Australia. We spent 6 months travelling around Auz in a campervan. 26,000 kilometers! We all loved Sydney. Our son has been back a couple of years ago and enjoyed it. He is now in his 30s. Your photos brought back good memories.

That top pic is a beaut. In all my years of flying to Australia (about a dozen I think) there was no better sight in the world than the view of Sydney Harbor and the bridge and the Opera House โ always early morning with the sun coming up. Great times.
