Something different - metro to end of line - walk and train back from Wolli Creek : April 29 2026

avatar

In a different pattern. Get moving - walk past the pickleball courts where they advertise play every morning. None today. Catch a train and head where trains go

Today - took the Metro to the end of the line at Sydenham and plan a walk along the Cooks River. Grand old Sydenham Station - all shuttered

General Gordon Hotel - the same Gordon after whom our suburb is named

A few cute cottage houses - Victorian without the iron work

Under the flight path

Old town hall building now a creative arts centre

Art work down the side of these old duplex terraces

More artwork - looks like art and not graffiti

A line of cottages - all much the same

Tempe Public School - Victorian style too - note the copper dome

Old church building now a Tongan church. Tells you something about how things have changed - the old folk who used this as their church have been replaced with new followers

The old and the new looking from Tempe to Wolli Creek - my target station is in those high rises

A view of the footbridge over Tempe Station. Unusually the ticket offices were built on the footbridge and not on the platform

View from the footbridge. My wife used to say a line in the Lords Pray - do not lead into Tempe Station. This is for her

For the railway aficionados - switching tracks

Going to follow the cycle track toward Arncliff - sure hope there is a way across the Cooks Rover to get to Wolli Creek. Otherwise it is a long walk - or loop back the way I came

Wolli Creek high-rises - the station is just below those

Decided to walk the east bank of the river and follow it around. Google Maps kept saying to do a U-turn back to the bridge in shot. Why? Nice day. Quiet park walk with unfolding views. Did see people walking the motorway bridge - get there and loop back

Interesting art work on this warehouse building. Inside - pickelball courts in action. Still no sign of a river crossing

Painting work on the jet fuel tanks at the airport - still no bridge. I did chat with a Qantas worker having his lunch break this side - figured there was a way to walk form the Qantas side

Reached the airport interchange - this bridge takes traffic to the city. I need to go the other way. Did find a bridge carrying the water pipes - across we go

A win - sign for where I want to go. Note the cyclist dismount sign. Footpath is narrow and the road is busy. One cyclist chose to ride the road - crazy man. The other made me step on the road - rude man. Follow the signs

View back to Wolli Creek with interesting cloud building

Airport shot from the freeway bridge

Nice park walk back to Wolli Creek - time for a loo stop

Lane way of eating places down to the station. Chose to head home - kegs are tired with over 10k steps done. Had to run two stations to make trains - all good - 25 minutes listening to investing stuff

Did a few shopping things on the wat home. Took down fire escape stuff for fire inspection Friday. Did cook dinner - comfort food. Guess

Make a roux - melt butter - sift in a few tablespoons of flower - add inspired garlic and spring onion when butter starts to brown

Make a bechemel sauce. It is a patient job - a bit of milk and mix in grated cheese. Use the leftovers you have - today it was parmesan, cheddar, French laval, cream cheese, cheddar, a bit of blue, red Leicester, sour cream - dash of white pepper too. Add milk and stir. Not too runny.

Grease the baking dish - layer of pasta, sauce, layer of pasta, sauce- tionwith grated parmesan, Spanish paprika and sliced tomato. Bake for 30 minutes at 180C

Nice green salad tops it off

Taking the Metro to the end of the line just to see where the tracks lead is the ultimate way to keep your steps interesting! Exploring Sydenham’s architecture and street art—while dodging the flight path—turned a standard walk into a genuine urban adventure.
