Beach Time

I left Sydney via the ferry to visit Manly today. It's only a 30 minute ferry ride.   The sun and blue skies complimented the 75 degrees. Meanwhile, Stefanny and her boyfriend Jack left Sydney via plane.  They went back to Cirebon for the holidays and I will meet up with them later. 

All was quiet on the beach at 10:00 this morning.  The water was a bit nippy but it felt good to be on the soft sand of Manly. 

BTW: The beach was named by Capt. Arthur Philip for the indigenous people living there. Philip wrote that "[the indigenous people's] confidence and manly behaviour made me give the name of Manly Cove to this place.
