Manly

Manly Beeeeeeeeaaaacch (reminds me of Lily in How I met your Mother's "s*n of a beeeeeeeeeach" term. Anyways I am getting out of point)

Anyways, it is a sunny day and we have decided to explore Manly Beach. Manly beach is a beach about 17 kilometres away from Sydney City itself and it took us approx 45 minutes to get there from the city. That tells you how bad traffic is in Sydney.

Throughout the trip, I had a querry onto whether Manly beach a "man"ly man manly beach? OMG I am so lame. But I have decided to find out whether the name relates to any masculine qualities of mankind. Answer is....

According to wikipedia.com, the answer is...

YES! The beach is named Manly when a captain thought the indigenous people who were living at the beach were both confident and manly. Thus naming it Manly Beach! Am I a genius or what!
Anyways, presentingggggg....
