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)

Saturday Quest




Saturday exhales the pollution of the week, gasping for clean air.

A Wild Thing said...

I took time out to walk with a friend down her daily path of cockatoos and ocean views...I take it all in as if I were there...we get to know each others paths, in hopes that someday we should meet...I know, a dream, but how fun to get to know someone on the other side of the sea...who has the same heart and soul and passion for the life...and has such a cool accent...ha!

They say us Mid-westerners have an accent, though nothing quite as dramatic as an Aussie, rather plain if you ask me, I love the drama and romance of an accent and am always asking people what country they're from...a silly thing, but silly is what I'm all about!!!

Thanks for the tour sweet friend, see ya at SSS!

Hug a bunch!
