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)

There must be a reason we travel, so the stylish train station seems to enliven the scene. It may be that the station itself may be the destination...

Well, the red got my attention but the guy sitting on the bench seems to be dozing off. :)

Leora said...

I bet you could write some nice ads for that advertising agency. I hope she's not ready to leap unto the train tracks - yikes! It looks like a clean, well-used train station.
