At 9 am I said goodbye to Norwegian Jewel in Sydney cruise ship terminal. 10 min later I had a chance to connect to free internet in the old Customs House – right opposite the ferry docks. On the streets you will not find free wi-fi! Then I was walking to the William St 65. They were waiting for me in the Hertz office! The car is ready – we will give you upgrade! White, brand new toyota, automatic… I do not care about luxury cars… They are bigger and not easy to park, and the fuel consumption is also higher. But what should I do? No, I do not want full insurance – the rental cost became 100 percent higher in such a case.
I asked the clerk about access to Princess Highway. -Easy, left, left, right 1 block and left again and there will be the sign showing didection to the airport…. I did it, but there was no sign to the airport – only M1 highway. How can I, the stranger know about M1, Mr Idiot? You go this way every day since years and You think there is a sign… I had no choice and soon I found myself in the North Sydney. Than back… I will pay for double crossing the tunnel and commission fee.
The rest of the day was fantastic. Once out of the monster city I went to coastat Royal National Park with fantastic view points, high on the cliffs. Than I visited Nan Tien – the biggest Buddhist temple on the Southern Hemisphere. Then I was driving to 7 Mile Beach… Uhhh…
The evening found me in the little town of Ulladulla. There is something like a poetry of geo names. Ulladulla sounds very nice, don’t you think?
