Last weekend, I met some of my girlfriends out at Bondi for a day of hanging out. Of course Bondi is mainly known for the beach, but there are lots of cute cafes and shops in the main part of the town. It's a pretty hip place to be on a Saturday!
Australians are pretty serious about their coffee. During the workweek, the thing to do is go out for coffee breaks at cafes at least once a day. People are very particular about the places they go, since it's all about the technique and preparation. On the weekends, like the nice one from last week, people head out to their local cafes for their coffee. The popular ones, like Harry's where we were, have lines of people waiting for coffee. I'm not much of a coffee person, but I've learned to drink it since it's such a part of the social scene!
After we had brunch, we walked down to the Bondi Saturday Markets. It might be one of the most hipster gatherings I've ever been to. =)
There was also a "rescue lizard" hanging around.
Even though it's the middle of winter, there's still plenty of lovely produce from out in the country.
After we went to the market, we decided to walk down to the beach - it's just what you do at Bondi!
The day was so lovely, people were hanging out at the beach, just like it was summer! We camped out on the hill above the beach and watched the surfers with the sun on our backs.
It was a pretty good way to spend a winters day in Sydney!
