Fire + Water

Contrasty down the beach this morning. At around 3am it bucketed down. At 6am it seemed to be clearing. At 6:30am the sky lit up with deep reds…but it went back to grey moments after.

Today we drove to the other side of the island where it’s a completely different weather pattern – sunny skies, blue water, calm beach…ah yes, a nice change from the rainy/stormy north shore. Ok so the waves weren’t pumping but the water clarity was AMAZING. See you in back in Bondi, :: u g e […]
