A new week. A monster options expiry with close to half a mill of sales. Will be good news if the new Trump tariff ideas crash the markets. Going to take some time to account for that and write it up. Rainy day makes it easy to do that - sit behind the PC and write it up
Weather did clear a bit for an umbrella walk - two tone hibiscus flower might make the theme for the day - two tone
Got the two in this hibiscus - it us a double - downgrades the day to hibiscus day
The third hibiscus makes it a play. Well maybe - as I walked with the umbrella the stormy clouds over Sydney began to break up. As I crossed over the bridge over Killara Station there was a train heading south. Got that - had an urge to walk the harbour
Picked something different - got off at North Sydney to walk down Blues Point Road - good for Harbour Bridge views. This one from just above the station
St Peter's Presbyterian Church
A framed bridge view from Xavier Park
Small drop into Xavier Street changes the perspective on the bridge. Lovely little dead end street walking distance to North Sydney and its station - and the views
Found a path that cuts down to the water - a small slice of rainforest right on the harbour
Path below looks up back to the sandstone walls - the roots had to work hard to reach the ground
Another rope root example in Watt Park - a famous North Sydney luminary - was mayor for a while yonks ago
Time to look up from roots to the sky - maybe 40 metres up and a blue sky. Umbrella not needed
To the water between MacMahons Point and the bridge - great views of the bridge and the city
Swing around a bit for views across to Barangaroo and the imposing presence of Crown Casino
A bit further along view of North Sydney line of apartments into the bridge
Looking back to the path I have walked - a quiet cove and Berrry island to the left
View along Luna Park to the bridge
Clear water view across to Barangaroo
Roller coaster ride about to begin with the bridge behind
Did not know that access to Luna Park is free. Walked in the bottom gate to watch - nit done that in my 25 years here. Was quite a buzz as it is still school holidays
Out the other side past the ferry wharf. Under the bridge to Circular Quay and the passenger terminal - Anthem of the Seas
A small swivel to capture the Opera House
Swing back to capture a ferry passing in front of Barangaroo
Change of angle over the passenger terminal for full view of Circular Quay
Under the bridge for the loop back to the nearest station. This old house up the hill caught my eye from the water
Bridge view from the Eastern side
Know where I am now - botrom of Jeffery Street Kiribilli - no idea if this is a working ferry wharf
View back - I can see the hotel we stayed in on our first nights in Sydney - the brown building on the left. The very tall building on that side was my first office
Was a good model - catch the first train arriving and then construct a walk. Always great to be a tourist in my home city - always a few new things
Stopped at shops on way from station - need beer and gin to preserve the kumquats doing well on our porch
A bit of excitement at home - a big tree fallen down. State Emergency Service called to assess the damage, make safe and make a fix it plan. They did come back later to chop it all up. We have to do the disposal
Last photo has a lesson attached. I struggle with depression. The things I have learned is to make small wins - today it was to repot the ficus in a bigger pot. The others are to get out for a walk or ride and take photos.
No dinner cooking - my wife is not well - she had toast and I did leftovers
