A walk around Sydney









































Hi Renotta and other friends
Still luring you to this part of the world. I am going to send you a heap of photos today - the reason being that, even they are probably not my best photos of the area, but were all taken yesterday which will demonstrate the incredible beauty of the area. Just as I am amazed at how you can come up with such beautiful, creative pieces every day, I want to amaze you.
These are the big picture photos, the closeups will follow tomorrow.

Thanks for saving the photos next to yours - that is very special.

Love C


Cremorne Point Walk pathway.

Cremorne Reserve stretches around the entire shoreline of Cremorne Point in a mix of bush and formal gardens, providing unrivalled public access to the harbour shores. It is a special reserve with a fascinating history in a spectacular environment

In one direction, Mosman Rowers Club - a great spot for a meal or a casual counter lunch/dinner and drink. Either return along the same path or take a 10 minute ferry trip from Mosman Bay back to Cremorne Point. (more to come about 'The Rowers'! We did have a drink there yesterday but I will save those photos for another day when I tell you why I didn't take G there when I first met him.)

If you choose to walk right along the path you follow Sydney Harbour foreshore to the lighthouse on the tip of The Point. You can then follow the path along the western side of The Point which offers superb views of the Opera House, Harbour Bridge and city skyline. During the day and at night it's a wonderful sight - don't forget your camera!

Discovery and appreciation are the key elements of this wonderful loop walk. The interpretative signs will help you to discover something of its original Aboriginal inhabitants, the early Cremorne Gardens, the fine architectural heritage, the impact of development on the Reserve's flora and fauna and the work being done to bring back the bMosmanush.
