Point

A Happy Bench Monday to all. I hope you have a grand start to the week and that it just gets better as it proceeds to next weekend.

This bench is beneath the massive Moreton Bay Fig which sits on Stingray Point in Mandurah. To the left is Mandjar Bay; to the right is the estuary leading to the Indian Ocean a kilometre away; ahead is the traffic bridge (the "new old bridge") leading from the foreshore on the left to Halls Head just across the river. Through the arches of the bridge is the vast Peel/Harvey Inlet, which is bigger than Sydney Harbour. The reversed sign by the bench is part of the Christmas/Summer decorations in this part of the city; it lights up in the evening.
