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)

lost in translation?...

was, is, will be a sign?...
This odd little board features on a beach box at Dromana beach...
(It seems too, that this is one of the few beach boxes with an electricity connection...
But why is the floodlight turned away from the sign, and seems to face the roofline?)


a mystery
when invisible wires
cross somewhere
