Here's Fi at our local beach which is about 3 blocks away.
G'day all - this is just a really quick post to put up some photos of where we are living at the moment. We have found a fantastic place in the eastern suburbs of Sydney at Coogee Beach. For those who don't know Sydney it's about 10 mins drive to the city and about 5 mins in the car to the famous Bondi Beach. Coogee itself is a pretty sheltered beach so there's no big waves, but another five minutes south is Maroubra Beach which gets some great surf. There's quite a few cafes and restaurants around and we have a couple of other 'cafe streets' within five minutes walk (Clovelly and Randwick), so all up, it's a pretty great place.

The house itself is a three bedroom townhouse with lounge and kitchen downstairs and 3 beds upstairs. It's pretty small, but has a large courtyard and double lock up garage which is awesome! It's perfect for what we are after. The best part of living here are the beautiful walking tracks the council has built between all the beaches. We can walk right along the cliffs either way from our place and it's absolutely awesome. Anyway, a picture tells
