Bondi Explorer: Kings Cross

The Bondi Explorer is a bus tour that takes you all around the beaches at the edge of Sydney. You can get on and off wherever and whenever you feel at various assigned stops. The buses pick up every 20 minutes, so if you are disinterested in the area, you can just catch the next one. However, every area has its own interesting sights.

The first stop was King's Cross. A few notes:
1. Don't take the kiddies inside a store called "The Toy Box"; and for the men, you will not find "The Tool Shed" much use for constructing things.
2. Singles-be sure you know what your getting yourself into if you hand someone your number.
3. Don't give out your number (unless of course you are very-open minded)

It was a very fun experience (for adults). However, the Bondi Bus brochure reads very subtly "Art Deco buildings, cafes, bistros, shops, restaurants, and nightclubs". Yeah they have all that, too.

Hi guys, You have been busy on the blog entries since I last looked. Aside from the obvious, what's with the warning about a single giving out their phone number. Great pictures.

Hey Dave, doesn't the fountain design seem familiar? Can't place where I saw it.

don't worry about the single's phone number.. it was just a poor attempt by brette to write something funny about a place that was completely boring. way to go brette..

Well duh, yea;

BTW, mom and I were not referring to Dave's piece "April 1st" that he composed/produced with the dandelion in seed moving in sync with music. Anyone interested in what we are talking about, go to www.nocturnal-illusions.com and click on Individual Works and April 1st.

Mom and I are sure we saw this same fountain design somewhere else.
