Kings Cross fountain

Finally back in Sydney after 6 years away (first time the van has been back since we left)



Have an appointment with specialist today at St Vincent's,
 so came in early & had a stroll through the Cross.
 
 
 


Feels OK to walk through here during the day, but wouldn't try my luck at night time

Catherine Hill Bay after the bushfires

Spent 2 days hanging around Belmont/Swansea, nice area & easy lifestyle
 
Drove to Catherine Hill bay to see how badly they had been affected by the bushfires last month
 
 


Close shave for this house, fires scorched the bushes at front & down the side of the place
Lucky escape

Catherine Hill bay pub
This is where the licencing cop tried to fine the publican for giving the
Firey's a beer & food after saving his historic pub
