Photos from Lorne (Australia)

My husband and I have just returned from holiday and these photos were taken during the past week.

Lorne is a seaside town situated along the famous Great Ocean Road.

 

 

It was a morning when the mist was low (2nd photo) and earlier on, we could barely see the mountains.

 

This lovely colourful building is a hotel

Sheoak Falls in the Great Otway National Park is a good 7 km hike, from  outside of Lorne – really good to get some exercise during the holidays!

Here is a map link showing where Lorne is : Click Here

 

Thank you for visiting. Have a lovely week.

Scenic Sunday : Idyllic holiday at the Whitsundays

These shots when my husband and I were holidaying at the Whitsundays, Australia in 2008.

We had a boat take us to our private beach on a different island every afternoon…

We were lucky to spot 2 humpback whales. We think they were dancing for us… (but it all happened too quickly for the amateur photographer to act)

This is Edwina, a banana loving wallaby. She is the resident pet at the hotel at Paradise Bay.

This photo was taken from a helicopter which took us to our hotel from Hamilton Island.

I have uploaded more photos in an earlier post: Click here to view.

Have a good week ahead.

Skywatch Friday: Balloon Ride over Melbourne, Australia

My husband and I took a balloon ride over the city in 2007. It was a memorable experience.

The ride started at about 5:30 am. 10 passengers got into a balloon. A few balloons were launched at the same time. It was pretty looking a the other balloons against the backdrop of orange sunrise. The ride lasted about 50 minutes.

Freeway and suburbs outside the city

I hope you enjoyed the photos. Have a nice weekend.

Skinny little Bok Choys…

10-day old seedlings growing next to an open window stretching out sideways towards the sun…

This is an earlier drawing, of the same but younger seedlings: 2-day old seedlings no longer afraid of the birds above…
