Today I said goodbye to North Ryde and hello to Cronulla. The project office moved over the weekend from North Ryde to the site of the desal plant at Kurnell, so all of the non-local engineering staff moved closer to the project site as well. I am now staying in a two bedroom apartment at the Quest Cronulla (www.questcronullabeach.com.au) and you can find it at Google Earth with the following coordinates. (34° 3'3.93"S, 151° 9'14.77"E). It's a nice place with two bedrooms, two baths, a laundry room, fully-equipped kitchen, dining room, living room, and nice patio that overlooks the pool, hot tub, and the beach. You can also see downtown Sydney which is about 25 kilometers away.
The nice thing about Cronulla, and virtually everywhere around Sydney, is that anything you need is generally within walking distance. There is an outdoor mall area where there are numerous shops, restaurants,and cafes. There are bakeries, fruit and vegetable shops, butchers, surf shops, etc so you can do your shopping daily. The beach is also right across the street and the train station is within walking distance as well. I think I am going to buy a boogie board and do a little surfing every morning before heading off for work. Here a few photos from around Cronulla.
