The weather was great this weekend (highs of 30) so we figured we should take the opportunity to hit the beach for the first time since we moved. After discussing different beaches, we decided to head out to Manly Beach instead of going to the tourist beach Bondi.
We rented a goget car (car share similar to zip car back home) where you can rent the car for the amount of time you need with the added convenience of picking it up at locations scattered around the city. We got to the beach around 10ish - with a minor detour courtesy of our GPS but were happy to finally be there! The beach was fab and the greatest part was that it was 15 mins away from home! Not too crowded, hot sand and pretty blue water! We stayed until mid afternoon and then headed home for a quick bite to eat and then off again to Garba.
We drove the 45 mins each way to get to Garba even though we didnt know anyone. It was good but it definitely made us miss home more! This time of year is usually full of loads of family events and we are both missing our parents & our life as we are use to it. Regardless it was great to see some other Indian people (more than we've seen in a while) and soak up the culture.
We got home around midnight only to be greeted by a local cat sitting on the door mat infront of our flat! Safe to say Pri had to make him move while I stood behind him using him as a shield!
