Tutu Tuesday in Bonny Hills, New South Wales: A Whirlwind of Tulle and Sunshine
G'day, fellow dance enthusiasts! It's your girl, Ella, back with another dose of tutu-tastic fun. Today's adventure? A #tututuesday romp through the picturesque coastal town of Bonny Hills, New South Wales! This little gem is tucked away on the Mid North Coast, offering up endless sunshine and sparkling beaches – the perfect setting for a ballerina on a tutu mission, wouldn't you say?
Now, before we delve into the tutu-licious highlights, let's chat about my choice of dancewear for this adventure. As a seasoned tutu connoisseur (don't we all strive for that title?), I had to pick something breezy and beach-friendly. Enter my pastel pink, three-tiered tulle creation. Think airy, feminine, and totally ready for a spin under the sun.
Our first stop: the vibrant Bonny Hills Markets. The atmosphere was buzzing with life, with stalls bursting with handmade treasures, local produce, and, most importantly, yummy food! It wouldn't be #tututuesday without a little fuel for our dance moves, so we grabbed a slice of fresh-baked fruit crumble – because every ballerina knows a little sugar never hurts. 😉
Next up, a leisurely stroll along the golden sands of Bonny Hills Beach. It's no secret that tutus and beaches are a match made in heaven. The soft waves crashing on the shore and the warm sand underfoot made for the most delightful pirouettes. And the views? Breathtaking, like stepping straight out of a ballet performance! Imagine yourself as a ballerina floating through a storybook scene – that's pretty much how I felt.
But our tutu adventure wasn't all about seaside bliss. We also explored the charming cafes of Bonny Hills, which offered up delicious coffee and tempting pastries. There's nothing quite like sipping on a cappuccino while admiring your reflection in a grand, full-length mirror (okay, I admit, it was just a mirror in the café – but a girl can dream!).
The beauty of Bonny Hills, and indeed, all of the NSW coast, is that it perfectly embodies the spirit of ballet – graceful, delicate, yet strong and powerful. The vastness of the landscape mirrored the grand stage of our dreams, while the intimate spaces whispered tales of graceful artistry. And let's not forget the undeniable connection to the natural world – a key ingredient in the beauty of both dance and nature.
My advice to all you ballerinas out there? Embrace the beauty of ballet beyond the confines of the studio. Don your tutu, step out of your comfort zone, and explore! There are incredible hidden treasures awaiting your dance, from breathtaking landscapes to charming local communities.
Whether you’re a professional ballerina or just someone who loves to twirl in your favorite tulle creation, there's something special about connecting with the joy of movement in new places. Remember, tutu Tuesdays are for everyone, no matter where your dancing takes you. So, step out of your everyday routine, channel your inner ballerina, and enjoy the whirl!
Until next time, keep twirling! And don't forget to tag your #tututuesday adventures with the hashtag #TutuTuesday.
Love,
Ella 💕
