We went out for brunch today down at the local beach, walked past some weird pop up shark bus museum (in the pic) as you do and managed to grab a table outside in a good spot (an achievement at the busy cafe run by the wee Scotsman!).

The breakfast bruchetta. Excellent and quite healthy. Poached eggs, sourdough, avo, oils, balsamic, chopped tomato, onion and mushrooms washed down with an exceptional large flat white.

CRACK BOOOOOOM!!!

The loudest fucking thunder you’ve ever heard scared the shit out of me. Storms in Sydney are like nothing I’ve ever seen or heard before. A million times louder and more fierce than what I was used to in the UK. Seriously.

I actually hate them. The thunder is so deafening that it shakes the buildings. Let you in on something funny here…
