I'm Eugene Tan. I run a Web site, which is called Aquabumps.com.
I get up every morning and take pictures down the beach.
I put those picture on my Web site and e-mail them out to my database,
which is, you know, about 40,000 these days.
And it's a great start to the day, especially when you see sunrises like this morning.
I normally end up swimming.
It's just after 6:00 in the morning.
All these people down here right now all have a desk job or somewhere to go,
so they can do an hour's exercise and,
you know, do their normal routine in the morning -- exercise,
they go for a swim, go to a cafe -- and they're in the city by 8:30,
and they'll probably end up back on the beach by 7:00 tonight and they can do something else.
It's a pretty good life.
It's a good life balance I think.
G'day, I'm Chris Radburn.
We're here at Double Bay and this hotel is the Golden Sheaf Hotel.
Let's go and have a look, and grab a beer.
It's been here about... since about 1936, I guess, 1930s.
And it's a place that everyone's always come to in Sydney.
It's in the eastern suburbs.
It's always been a place to have a... you know, have a drink.
You can have a seat over here, which is the bistro, which is always some really good food.
You can still come here with your family,
because, you know, you got your little kids walking around, as well.
So it caters for everybody. So this is a local place.
My name is Laura Enever.
I am 19-years-old and I'm from North Narrabeen in Sydney Australia.
So, we're at Freshwater Beach right now,
and this was pretty much the birthplace of surfing in Australia.
They have this statue right here.And this is The Duke.
The Duke came here from Hawaii in 1914, way back in the day.
So he kind of started surfing in Australia.
The first person to actually surf in Australia was a girl who The Duke actually picked up off Freshwater Beach
and they went out and tandemed together.
So that's pretty cool to know that the first surfer in Australia was actually a girl.
It's a nice view from up here.
And this is Freshwater Beach.
That's where they went surfing for the very first time.
A lot of people come to the tower and ask the life guards what's the best thing to do and first thing
we say is you gotta do the Bondi to Bronte walk.
It's sensational with the cliff faces and stairs.
It's a good workout all at the same time.
You know, the cool part about this cliff walk,
as you can see, is looking back onto the cliff face,
and it's from the wind carving out the rocks over all these years.
And it's just a magnificent sort of sight.
Bondi's so well known around the world
that you do feel like you're a bit of an icon now working as a lifeguard,
and yeah, well I mean we're a part of the Aussie culture.
You know, we're icons and ambassadors for Australia in the ocean.
