Randwick, Sydney

The majority of my day was spent exploring Randwick. I was still a little in the ‘Gold Coast spirit’ (very laissez faire) so naturally I got up late & ate a nonsensical breakfast before heading out armed with my camera.

Randwick is a beautiful place and is very close (4 kms south) to the Sydney CBD (Central Business District) or what Mumbaikars refer to as ‘the city’.

It is known for housing Sydney’s largest park - Centennial Park and also the “world famous” Royal Randwick Racecourse.

It is also a pretty much a university area and is home to the University of New South Wales.

I also got to browse through plenty of little stores as well as the church I had gone to Mass at the previous day - Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church. If you’ve followed my travelogues before, you’ll know that I have a fascination for churches (& for the Spirit therein!) & I did go a little camera crazy before I settled down for some good quality time with God.

I ended the day shopping with Sim - where she bought me my very first gift for myself from Australia - this very cute pair of bedroom slippers :D
