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)

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ I love this photo of an older woman, wheelchair bound, but still enjoying the freedom of being beachside + taking her dog for a walk

It's good that she gets out! That's great even though she's in the wheel chair. And nice shot of the beach too!!!

I think it is wonderful that cities are now making places more accessible for wheelchair bound people. That is such a great step forward.

Thats neat she is able to ride around on the beach. I think everyone should be able to enjoy a beautiful scene like that. =)

I love this shot too. I know that if anything ever disabled me, I would do everything in my power to still take my weekend walk! Happy Scenic Sunday:)
