Where the Wild Things Are

So, Max stared into their yellow eyes, without ever blinking even once! And the wild things were subdued.

Let the wild romp begin!

Perhaps, Maurice Sendak was inspired by the Yiddish expression 'vilde chaya', meaning boisterous children. These 'wild things' are located in the Ben Buckler park overlooking Bondi Beach which you can just make out in the background. It is a wonderful place for a beer and fish'n'chips as the sun sets on a Saturday.

Watching the Bondi sky at dusk


Bondi Beach reminds me of a bite taken out of a piece of toast. Over the other end, the northern end, the area is known as Ben Buckler.


Over this end, the southern end, the area used to be known as 'the bogey hole'. Now it is just called 'Icebergs'.

This is my contribution to the Skywatch community.
