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)

Seems like people are having a good time in the red zone.
Also great architecture.

Red certainly makes it stand out but it seems very obtrusive. Red isn't calming to me for taking time out. :)
A great find however!

I so hope to go to Australia one day. That is a dream of mine. I always think of Australia as Canada's sister
