Beaches and tacos? Recipe for my favorite day

So Bondi Beach.

Gorgeous weather, gorgeous ocean and gorgeous people. And me and LP are all like sweaty and American.

There's a coastal walk that goes from Bondi (bon-die) to Coogee Beach-- I wanna say it was 4.4KM? Hell I can't remember but it was absolutely... Gorgeous. Bondi, Coogee and all the little coves and beaches have beautiful vistas and views. The locals use the walk as a training ground to be fit and active and skinny... And just gorgeous. They literally flew by us walking (yes), running, sprinting and there we were-- just sweaty an American.

I should have prefaced this costal walk and say-- it is not by any means ,flat. It's steep and there are stairs --not complaining just commenting. It's 100% worth the sweat -- because the views are spectacular.

Back in Sydney, we bonded even more with our roommates from Wake Up! Sydney. We are finally being social! We have friends! It's not just us out here in the big bad world outside Kentucky.

It's kind of amazing how much you actually do bond with some people on the road( because I'm obviously a veteran). T you're able to make friendships with them because you share this huge thing called independent travel. It's a big deal. Everyone should do it.

And as I mentioned in my last posting, all the girls ( from USA, AUS and GB) swapped in-country sayings/ phrases-- and tested out accents.

My favorite might be 'wanker.'

The Australians' favorite might have been , 'and not a fuck was given that day'.

Most of us were moving on the next day, and decided to all get dinner together. We had Mexican food. No matter the country no one can turn down a good taco.

Cheerio for now.
