Walking a long pier
Dreams sail out to horizons
And return refreshed

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Easy to dream in such a surrounding and what memories, however small to tuck away in the recess of our identity on our journey back home
sharon.
It looks like an inviting place for a stroll. However, "Louis" fears that une vache would not be welcome.
i do miss being near the water. :O
I love your 'watery Wednesday' post! I never tire of looking at the water & can spend hours just gazing out to sea! Very calming photo! As much as I'd enjoy speding hours looking at it, unfortunately I'm at work & my boss wouldn't be impressed ;D
Hey I'll be posting about the blog award you so kindly gave me on my SSS post. Just letting you know in case you popped in & saw it wasn't mentioned in my post from today. I was simply saving it for Sunday :D
Great entry! My post is up. I'll try to get it up earlier from now on. :-)
Wow! I love the place very peaceful and beautiful...
Hi Gemma, beautiful photo, one of my favorite things to do is to walk on a pier. Haven't done it for a long while so your picture brought back a lot of lovely memories of the last time I was on one. I love everything about this photo.
Your haiku is just wonderful for this photo!
When the photo came up I was immediately relaxed. Spending time by the ocean always refreshes me and looking at the expanse of the horizon was calming.
Wonderful post and I love the photo!
That looks like a pleasant place for a stroll. I can almost smell the salt air. Happy Watery Wednesday.
lovely picture and super haiku!
i'm glad healingstones pointed out the "haikus"- I so remember loving these when I got taught them in my 3rd grade class! yours are elegant :)
Thank you for showing such lovely photos of Australia and especially a part I don't know.
Walking out on a pier can be so refreshing, I agree. Happy Watery Wednesday!
I can just smell the salt air. Looks like a lovely pier for stroll.
Looks peaceful. *sigh* Happy Wednesday! :)
I wish I was walking on that pier. Nice picture.

Thank you very much for sharing. Through your blog, a lot of people including me of course have a chance to read and learn from. I have read some of your post and I really enjoyed reading it. Thanks again and looking forward for more of your posting soon!
Your blog profile reads like an intriguing snatch of a novel - the story of your life sounds very interesting. I love the picture of the loner. I don't think I am a loner but I love (and need) solitude. Your are my first blogger with links to Tasmania! Some of my dad's family emigrated in the late 19th century to Tasmania but Grandpa came here to South Africa at age sixteen. I shall visit again!
