A walk at the end of the street..



A short drive up 40th Street and slip into a parking spot and as quick as a wink you are walking over sand/gravel/rocks watching out for the cactus needles. Quite amazing!

Don't loose sight of the path because it begins to all look the same. There is evidently a rule of sharing the pathways. Horses then pedestrians then cyclists. Well we did not see any horses but every cyclist except a lovely young woman took the right of way as if they were competing in the Tour de France. I guess it has something to do with lycra pants!

As I drive around town - usually turning the wrong way - I am amazed at how many hills there are. Fortunately there has been enough open land for people to build around the hills for the most part. A beautiful city, even if a little dusty. Feels quite like Canberra in a way.
