Prior to the Great Depression of the 1930s, between 100 and 200 bathing boxes were scattered along the Brighton foreshore, with many (boxes) being subsequently washed away during severe weather, leaving just 82 remaining..

With all the constant time demands with organising our upcoming wedding, Sharon & I needed some time out and escaped for the Queen’s Birthday long weekend, taking a drive along one of the most prettiest of roads in Australia (The Great Ocean Road). For anyone not familiar with this road, it is a stretch of road, a few hundred kilometres long that very literally follows some of Australia’s most stark coastline between Bass Strait and Southern Ocean (basically next stop would be Antarctica.)

Well not quite, but I could not resist the reference to the Goodies anyway..:) One of the nice bonuses staying around the Rocks, is the close walking distance to the various parks around the city centre. Sydney parks are small but I think is it the striking skyline that makes the city’s park’s seem a little special but judge that for yourself when you look at the Sydney Park’s, Views & Buildings albums.
