My Australian Journey: Lasting Impressions

As I settle back into "normal" life back in Versoix, I am conscious that during my 3 weeks in Australia, I have just scratched the surface of what this amazing continent has to offer in sights and sounds.

My lasting impressions will be:

The hauntingly familiar arching shapes of the Sydney Opera House,








the grandeur of the Harbour Bridge,








and the ubiquitous green and yellow ferries in the harbour.









Rainforest scenes around Kuranda.


























The splendour of Uluru


























and the magic of Kata Tjuta.

















Views from the road between Ayers Rock and Alice Springs








Of the red earth








Mount Ebeneezer Roadhouse








and a brilliantly cloudy sky....

At "A Town like Alice", the variety of art which decorated the School of the Air.









The Aboriginal Culture Galleries in the Museum of South Australia in Adelaide.

















The Fairies' Tree








and the spectacular Eureka Building in Melbourne,








not forgetting the view from the 48th floor...


















Lastly the banks of the Swan River wending its way from Fremantle to Perth.

















all these memories and so many more.
