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)

what a beautiful old church. i think old structures such as these add character to a place, don't you? hope all is well.
..for the old is gold....too good they made the old church still usable and being converted to a book shop? that's great!
happy book hunting over there!!!
It's fun to poke around in such a bookshop, I think. Good recycling of an old church. :)
Lovely gothic arch windows! We have an old church nearby that was a bookstore for a while. It was the most enchanting place, and I cherish the books I purchased there when it was open....they're extra special.
You photos of Queenscliff are terrific, especially the churches and boats. I have tried to document the development of Queenscliff during the boom decades of the 19th century, and am grateful for the link to you post.
