DAY 6, sun 30th - Surf's up dude!

Just Jim and I up and out this morning, 6ish. We walked back to the cafe we found yesterday and had croissants, juice and coffee for breakfast. Walked back past our possible new house and met the family about 7am, another breakfast of omlettes later we decided to all go off to Manly beach as it was a wonderfully clear and sunny day. Ferry to Circular Quay, then on board the manly ferry, took about 1.5 hours door to beach but It's good as a practice run for Jen when she has to entertain the boys on her own, 3 hrs travelling really eats up the day!I'd only been to manly once before and got as far as the ferry port then turned round and got on the return ferry due to a huge arguement with a girlfriend on the way over, so it was nice to get a bit further this time.Beach was great, we had lunch outside on some benches, boy's had fish and chips, I had an excellent burger.Jim has found his spiritual home, he absolutely loved it. The other boys too but it was good to jim soo happy there.I had a bit of a swim and did some body surfing, finally, the reward for swimming out in the first place. Big poweful surf, totally took me back to 1991, walking around barefoot, gentle breeze off the sea and slow baking sunshine. Also, some classic austalian beach bodies bouncing around ;-)Back on the ferry after 4 hours and an ice cream, then a BBQ. Couple of glasses of Shiraz, (Justin is slowly working me up his good wine collection) Then crashed out about 9pm again. Estate agents on monday then I'm hitting Sydney CBD to get myself gainfully employed. Later Dudes
