AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

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)

On Top of the World


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ This is a photo of Dromana looking from the top of the main road to my new home in the Dromana Hills. To the right, at the bottom of the hill, is the Dromana shopping village on the coast and Mount Martha is on the far right.
