...Hills to Danks Street, Waterloo, visiting the precinct's many galleries. Then, in Danks Street I'd call in to the Fratelli Fresh Italian produce warehouse, tel: (61-2) 9699 3161, collect a light picnic, and head to Beare Park in Elizabeth Bay. It has a beautiful pond, the gardens always have something lovely in flower, and there are delightful harbor views. Just across the park is Elizabeth Bay House, tel: (61-2) 9356 3022, a restored 19th century mansion that often has quirky exhibitions dealing with Sydney's history. Finally, I'd head out to Bronte Beach and walk...
...behind a black veil. Her religious modesty attracted dozens of Haredi female disciples over several years, but her own sister was frantically seeking police intervention to stop the woman from thrashing her children with a rolling pin. Neighbors say she allegedly left her kids tied for hours to a garden tree. After her arrest, one of her children, now an adult, told police that his mother had encouraged incest among her offspring when they were younger...

At the center of the crowd-trim...

I see none of the country's omnipresent Buddhist monks in the new capital, even at the local pagoda. The instigators of last year's democracy protests, which soldiers broke up with gunfire, presumably aren't welcome in a city dedicated to a surreal sense of order...
...Despite the considerable effort evident in the landscaping of the manicured confines of Naypyidaw's Natural Herbal Park and Water Fountain Garden, no people loll in these public green spaces. Indeed, the only place, besides the market, where people seem to be relaxing was at a Buddhist pagoda, where three canoodling couples have sought out shade. But none of the country's omnipresent Buddhist monks appear to have made it to Naypyidaw, not even to its pagoda. Presumably, these instigators of last September's peaceful democracy protests, which were violently suppressed by soldiers aren't overly welcome in a city...
