Less is More - Our New Life

It's not a sea change, we are still by the same sea, (the Pacific Ocean), just further down the coast, in historic city of Botany Bay.
The one bedroom unit we bought has none of the romance of the Coogee ramshackle Federation half house we used to live in, with it's overgrown garden, surrounded by huge trees, which I planted in the seventies.

But what it has, it has in spades, from the near perfect finish of the unit, to the walking distance to the pristine Bay, with its generous promenade,and cycle track, with clean small beach, littered with interesting shells.
Looking at this pic, you might wonder: "Is this up the coast? Or down the coast, some isolated hideaway"? Nope, it's Ramsgate Beach, just a Cooee from the city centre. Less is more.





The path less trodden ....












All this is one block away from a very complete shopping centre, which has ample parking space, a first class cafe, and the best fish shop anywhere, which will grill you fish in olive oil. Coles is open 7 days (for your organics)




The layout of Ramsgate Beach is very reminiscent of Lismore, but the people hee are more cosmopolitan, more open and friendly.
The whole area is flat, which, these days suits me just fine.
