We had about an hour to get something to eat and explore the town and beach before the next Big Bus came along and we were able to continue our journey.

According to Wikipedia "Bondi," originally "Boondi" is an Aboriginal word which had the meaning of "noise made by sea waves breaking on the beach," which is essentially the definition of "surf" in contemporary American English. As you can see from images captured during our visit to Bondi Beach, this is quite an appropriate name.
Lunch Break & Beach Time
The Big Bus dropped us off near some restaurants and shops which were just down the block and across the street from the beach. Since we only had an hour, we opted for a quick lunch at McDonald's. We were in the mood for a taste of home anyway since we'd been gone over 14 days at this point. After lunch we crossed the bridge, seen in this photo, to the sprawling beach. It would be a great place for a picnic or just to hang out and enjoy the surf and sun. As you can see, the beach was quite crowded, but no one seemed to mind as there was plenty of room.We got to the bus stop just in time to catch the bus and resume our tour. We still had plenty to see before the tour was concluded.
