We’ve had a record run of hot days in Sydney with about 39 days in a row of temperatures above 26 degrees. We’ve managed to take advantage of that by getting to the beach a few times.
Today we went to Fisherman’s beach – but the tide was high and big waves were crashing on to rocks and it looked a bit scary. So we drove to the other side of Long Reef and went to Long Reef beach. It was much better there so we had a swim in the surf – our first time at Long Reef.
Very pleasant dip and a sunbake. Then we had a bit of lunch at nearby Dee Why, which has a good strip of cafes overlooking the beach. Buckwheat pancakes with ham and egg. Jan chose the vegetarian version. My first-ever buckwheat pancake and it was jolly good.
Lotus eaters…John did you Photoshop your muscles?! I don’t recall ’em being that big.
