BONDIBondibeach is perhaps the most famous beach in Australia if not the World. The glowing white sand, the cool breeze from the sea and the glorious whether make it one of the greatest tourist?s attractions in Australia. Everyone will tell you if you are in Sydney you have to go to BondiBeach, and they are right, Bondi is one of the best experiences a tourist can have.
History:

Advantages: Nice to see Disadvantages: too crowded
BondiBeach is one of Australia's most famous beaches, located in Sydney it is a huge tourist destination. Bondo or 'Boondi' is an Aboriganal name meaning 'Water breaking over rocks' or 'noise of water breaking over rocks'

When I was seven years old my not long widowed mother decided to take me and my sister to Australia for the summer to visit her brothers who'd both emigrated to Sydney about 10 years earlier. They had been 'Ten Pound Poms', just two of the many people who'd fled the miserable drabness of early 1960s Britain to build a new life in the sun. Mum still has photos and some jerky cine-film of my sister and me in our swimsuits (mine had a little frilled skirt on it - can you imagine?) running around a totally empty BondiBeach, with no more than a solitary baffled looking dog-walker wrapped in coat and scarf watching us in the distance. We were, as she tells it, the only three people on Bondi's massive beach that day because no Australian would want to be on Bondi in the middle of the winter.
This year we went back ? my mother and step ...
