I didn't end riding down to Bondi nor did it rain, not riding turned out to be a safe idea, there were a lot of nutbags and trashbags encountered on the drive there.
Now I understand why the people behind the Bioshock2 marketing stunt held it at the frigid break of dawn. It's not so it would provide an eerie environment for
a Big Daddy to appear on the beach or the morning mist to reveal an approaching boat, upon which the faithful fans and dedicated jurnos would be showered with photo ops or information.
Who ever had done this (ninjas) had used the cover of dawn to plant plastic bottles on the beach (bottles and contents pictured below). They then ran to cover to watch the people gather together in shivering clumps of fooled penguins, pick up the bottles, wait and then look wistfully towards the ocean. Pff... I don't know, how about having someone dispensing some of those bottles with actual merlot inside for the oldies and energy drink for the sprites? It's not that hard to do.
Still, it was all a bit of an adventure, I gained some plastic propaganda to junk my place with (docs could look kind of cool framed), made some new friends and the beach at dawn was pretty special. RT @aussie_kozy Sunrise at Bondi http://twitpic.com/d2tva
Well played ninjas, well played.
Thank you @RoboticButtocks for taking pics while I was bbq'n.
