Cool vid

If you’ve ever been tempted to visit the world’s most beautiful city (Sydney, duh)…well don’t bother. Here’s a 5 minute version.

It’s a hyperlapse video of the Bondi to Manly coastal walk (about 80k) from the near south to the near north of the city, walked over 4 days.

I’ve run both halves of it countless times, but never the entire length in one go, but I’ve just put that on my To Do list (TTSTTTF).

Coastal Walk

I biked about 5,000 km in Australia but now wish I did that walk too. I spent too much time in the Outback but also biked through some wine country, through Adelaide and then along the South Shore and up to Sydney so saw a lot of your beautiful country.

Well, life is short and the world is large.

You’ve seen, and experienced, more of it than 99+% of humanity has. Australians are great travelers, but you’ve probably also seen more of Oz than most Aussies.

Happy to show you around if you make it back.

My brother teaches at ANU in Canberra so I very well might be back. He’s here in Canada getting married to a lady from Indonesia and they are going back to Canberra in a few weeks. I’ll show him the video, it will be something he’d enjoy.

Was this like a walk-about as described in Crocodile Dundee?

I haven’t been to Sydney (although it looks nice in the video), but I have been to Cape Town and I don’t know if Sydney could top Cape Town in a “World’s most beautiful city” contest.
