Australia & Ashes 2017 - 2018 - Day 7 - 29th November

Day 7


Decided to spend the day in Manly today, but it was a wet start as the rain had come in.  Still went ahead though and caught the bus in.  When I arrived I got off near Queenscliff and walked along the front hoping to see some surfing.  By now the sun was out and people were venturing onto the beach.




There was no surf up though, it was poor conditions for surfing.



Looking out over the water Shelly beach was looking particularly appealing.



From trhe beach I headed down the Corso, the main street linking the beach to the ferry terminal. 



l spent some time in O’Neils and then headed for another favourite of mine, the New Brighton Hotel.for a drink. 






I decided to have lunch here and sat out on the first floor balcony taking in the world passing by below.






I had to watch out for the pesky gulls though who thought they could share lunch with us. 





After lunch I headed back to Forest Way to get a haircut but not before I had a brief stop in The Ivanhoe.

The Ivanhoe Hotel is a much-loved local pub, is located in the heart of The Corso in Manly on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.  Offering a refreshing, timeless and sophisticated setting. The Ivanhoe Hotel has a strong emphasis on food, quality and produce. Behind the magnificent heritage facade, The Ivanhoe Hotel’s interiors channel a Hamptons-inspired coastal beach vibe while retaining the welcoming and relaxed atmosphere of Manly and that feeling of a local pub.
