So finishing if this leg of the Sydney trip , the next stop was in Northbridge. A leafy suburb of Sydney, central and near the mid harbour with a lovely dog called Timmy – famous 5 !
Here’s Timmy , in the foreground A Sheppa Doodle . Part Old English sheep dog . Shaggy and big feet Plenty of good dog walks around the house , but a bit of a climb up and down to the best parts Super spots looking onto mid harbour Fortunately, unlike Luna , Timmy is not a water fan Anita’s old junior minister from Cambridge now works locally, so we had a morning at Balmoral beach A beautiful day The kids love Timmy Plenty of beautiful inlets And tracks to explore Bob Hawke lived and died nearby More inlets , bays and creeks . Timmy is there somewhere Timmy’s water avoidance Northbridge also had a saltwater baths . Daniel spotted stingray And Anita jellyfish, so only lasted 2 lengths After a while Timmy smelt too much so Daniel cleaned him in the shower We had a Saturday brunch in ManlyA big day there for the Surf Lifesavers. Teams came from all over Australia, but weren’t allowed in the sea . Evidently a dolphin was attacked by a Bull Shark . Didn’t stop the surfers . Safely in numbers
