**Forestville to Manly: Classic Bushwalk, Manly Dam, Manly Beach 16KM Medium** From Warringah Road, Forestville we make haste for **Currie Road Trail** which gets us into the bush and onto the **Natural Bridge Track**, by which we cross the gully and access **Allambie Heights**. At the back of the Warringah Aquatic Centre we will find the **Roller Coaster Possum Track** and Manly Creek Trail, which we follow through to **Manly Dam** and our lunch stop with clean bathrooms at 8KM in. Many Dam rocks and, after lunch, we walk straight across **the Dam wall**, before turning south, sneaking through a few backstreets and accessing a system of parks and pathways that follow **Manly Creek** down to Manly Lagoon and, finally, the Pacific Ocean at **Queenscliff Beach**! A stroll along the **Manly Beach Promenade** leads to the Corso and a Pub, or straight to Manly Ferry Wharf for a **classic ferry ride** across Sydney Harbour back to Circular Quay! What more could you possibly want from a day out!!! **Distance:** 16KM **Type of Walk:** Great bush walking in the first half, including little known trails leading onto the back of Manly Dam.

Looks like Rhodes is a better location to most of us. 5 minutes walk from Rhodes train station. Free parking for 3 hours in the same shopping center, rumour says. As this group is a mixed Mandarin, Cantonese, Chaozhouese event, together with English-speaking Chinese, please kindly expect not everyone understand all languages. But you can make friends with people who speaks your langauge here. \*\* It is a very new group. We are also ++ participants from other Meetup groups and a new Facebook group. \*\*

⚽ **Want to kick off your Sunday the right way?** Looking to play futsal in Sydney? Say no more — we’ve got you covered! Join us **every Sunday at 10 AM** at South Eveleigh Sports Courts for fast-paced, good-vibes futsal. Whether you’re a seasoned baller or you’ve never touched a futsal ball before — if you love football, you’re one of us. We play on hard ground, so leave the spike boots at home (unless you enjoy sliding around like Bambi on ice ). *** **One golden rule:** Cancelling after **12 PM on Saturday** means you’re out for future games. If you say you’re coming, you’re coming. Why? Because commitment is the only “fee” we charge. No drama, no flakes — just good people and good football. If you’re cool with that, we’ll welcome you with open arms. Fair warning, though… Once you join, you’ll probably want to play every week. See you on Sunday! ⚽
