So a few months ago I celebrated completing all of the Eastern Suburbs. Well it turns out I lied to everyone, as I've discovered I missed one. And thus, without further ado, let's sort that out.

After spending the past 3+ years attempting to Complete Sydney, I've finally achieved something with these next two suburbs. I've completed Southeast Sydney, having now covered all of the suburbs in this small region of Sydney. It's something.

Last post, I shared that this year I'm planning on pushing mysef to walk really bloody far. Well, this next series of posts is one long day in Southeast Sydney, where I attempt to cover my ten remaining suburbs of the region in a single day.

Hello.


As you may be expecting, due to the Sydney lockdown this will be my last of these for a while. 


This post itself was documented early in the stay-at-home restrictions, while on a legal walk for exercise from my house. As you'll see from the photos, there were loads of people out and about - and I was one of them. While I could potentially make some blog posts within 10km walking distance from home while getting my exercise in, I think it is the wrong message to send when we've been in lockdown for more than a month and case numbers are still rising. 


No matter where in Sydney you are, please do the right thing so that we can get back to normal as soon as possible.

It's been a bit of time since I last covered a suburb that's mainly just about "look, it's pretty". Here's a solid example of that as any.

Bondi, after key CBD attractions like the Opera House and Coathanger, is one of the most famous spots in Sydney. However, did you know that Bondi is actually made up of four suburbs? You've got Bondi Junction, Bondi Beach, North Bondi and just regular plain old Bondi. Rather than the excitement of Bondi Beach, this suburb is the last one on the list.
