Bondi Resort Blog

Come on into our Blog for a look at the wonderful world we've got to share!

Catching up to the Days

This was Christmas eve day... Sunny. Lovely. Very high winds produced "surf" on Bondi beach, and took out hydro for most of the day. I made coffee on the campstove, and put off switching on the generator until later in the day. This has been most unusual weather for this time of year. We've had 'green' Christmas in the past, but usually a cold one, with ice on the bay. This one has just been, well, early October... Sweaters, windbreakers, running shoes. Nice, actually, and lovely to be outside hiking and enjoying the peace and quiet.

surf's up!

Here's some pictures from that glorious day... I hope you enjoy!

temperature is also up!

Kale is still green in the garden!

That is a snow cloud, hanging over the fire of the setting sun...

We get the very best of sunsets!

Evening sun on the water.

follow that golden road into Christmas day!

Napster Art

We are very proud of Napster, our tail-painting cat, who uses his lovely artwork to raise money for charities. This lovely little creature passed away July 2015, but left a huge legacy, having raised over $12,000 for various charities through the sale of his artwork. That artwork, through prints and notecards, is still available.
Click here to visit Napster's Blog and visit the gallery of his tail-paintings.

Now sold around the world, he was honoured to have his artwork sold around the globe -- he even has a print with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
