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)

We visited Mornington Peninsular last year and had a wonderful time. Love your pic and slide show.

This is another Ozzie Gem.

The Sydney Harbour view you commented on sometime ago was taken while I was on board Tangara Train facing. I sat on the left side on my way to the north. It was around the area of Milson's Point, I think. And am thinking maybe I should go on foot to check the name of the building that was captured in the photo. Because of the continuing construction in that area, I think that view has been temporarily obstructed. Thanks for the visit last time, I should say.
