harbour cruising

continuing our journey from last week along the shore of sydney harbour. steve doing the driving, me taking photos, giving orders, looking out for submerged rocks & sometimes waving an oar at the occasional protective seagull trying to swoop us.. 



this beautiful little lighthouse built in the 1800's is in someones front garden


 huge multi million dollar homes..but it's the old weatherboard cottages and boatsheds that i love most


this bridge is part of the harbour foreshore walking track which pretty much follows where i've taken you by boat







don't you love these lovely old weatherboards right on the beach?!







thanks for joining us.. 

more weatherboard love here
& the first part of our day here

    I'm such a fan of the weatherboard and if it's next to the harbour well all the better. Your boat trips sound exactly like ours.

    More gorgeousnous!! I agree, it is the boathouses and cottages that appeal to me too, although if someone offered me the big homes, I wouldn't turn them down. :)
