Elouera is a surf beach on the shore of Bate Bay, in the southern suburb of Cronulla. This surf rescue patrol shade tent on the beach and all terrain vehicle are used by lifesavers to rescue swimmers or surfers from the Pacific Ocean. For this theme day, I chose Sydney's surf beaches for what I would miss most if I had to leave the city from which I usually post forever.
Hah, good choice, Jim. Ten years ago, I would have mussed them, but nowadays, the movement of the water sets up a swaying in my vestibular system, and I take another day to recover!. Love the colours you have captured here. Actually, I did not know that Bate Bay existed ...
ReplyDeleteI can see how you would miss these brave and dedicated guys and girls.
ReplyDeleteI can understand that.
ReplyDeleteI would miss this too, great picture, Jim !
ReplyDeleteI would miss the sea the most! Very enjoyable photo!
ReplyDeleteColour- action and a goodly dash of Australian sunshine. Definitely I would miss that.
ReplyDeleteGood choice .

ReplyDeletemuch love...
The water certainly looks inviting.
ReplyDeleteI definitely would miss beach and water worlds. The little beach buggy looks just like the one used here in Dromana.
ReplyDeleteI would miss your beaches and the sea too. Good choice!
ReplyDeleteSydney has such wonderful beaches! It is easy to understand why you would miss them.
ReplyDeleteI used to live in a coastal town (Atlantic Ocean) so I can see why you'd miss this lovely beach, the surf, the salty air....
ReplyDeleteLove your choice for the theme day. Well done!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful take on the theme!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you Jim, our beaches in Oz are the best..
ReplyDeleteYou photograph buildings so much I thought you might have chosen them, but certainly the surf beaches are an important part of Sydney.
ReplyDeleteJoan, I almost chose the Sydney Opera House but thought I might highlight something different this time.
DeleteAs I have already said, I am happy to see a lot of water today!

ReplyDeleteWe have beaches too.... but there are SNOW on them.
I miss sunny WARM days and places like this too.
Hi Jim, love the beach scene. For me it might be the shade I would miss the most. Happy theme day

Lovely beach, nice choice for themeday. Greetings from Tilburg, where we only have a 'summerbeach' near a canal, especcialy made to enjoy in summer... one can not have everything...
ReplyDeleteOh well if I had a beach anywhere near, I'd have chosen that too! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful! No wonder you would miss it. I grew up being able to walk to the beach from my house as a kid and it was one of the hardest things to get used to not having when I moved.
ReplyDeleteWow! Talk about colorful.
ReplyDeleteI was expecting a church! ;)

It could have been. I'm not sure of the history of these convent buildings but this one looks like it could have been the original church building.
DeleteI know they need to make it visible but wow!
ReplyDeleteI could never live too from from the sea Jim. Great choice.
ReplyDeleteI do live far from the sea now and I SO miss Aussie beaches ! Thanks for the great shot!
