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)

Parallel lifestyles

The striped boat shed almost looks like something from the GingerBread man book! :P Very interesting and playful colors they've painted it.

Happy Weekend Gemma!:)
