Iconically Australian…
At exactly 33.89S and 151.27E you will have reached your destination!
Iconically Australian and delightfully quirky…
…welcome to The Grounds by the Sea…
It’s where comfort is paramount…
And unfortunately, NOT for sale!
It’s where refreshments entice amidst the sandy bric-a-brac
And just around the corner, is the Pick Up joint…
… for sumptious snacks and exotic drinks
served by staff schooled in the Basil Fawlty tradition!
served by staff schooled in the Basil Fawlty tradition!
Then take a pew…
Under the clothes line…
Amidst wodden pegs and underwear…
As you watch the sun slowly sink into the warm earth
Or if you prefer a more muted sky…
Sit at the front overlooking Bondi Beach
And a ubiqutous lone pine.
The Grounds by the Sea is surely grounds for permanency?

Just lovely Fran! LOVE the pics and your words 🙂
And don't forget, momentarily smack dab in the midst of 106 (?) sculptures with Sculpture by the Sea! Love the clothes line!
Beautiful words and pics Francesca. Love the muted sky clothes line shot and the Bra shot too!!
Thank you Germana – it's a classic isn't it… so quirky and clever! Fxx
Thank you Mem… it was such a lovely surprise at the top of the hill. We all signed a petition to have it as a permanent cafe. Fingers crossed. fxx
Oh Marg – thank you how silly of me! I have now added the link to Sculpture by the Sea! Thank you! F x
