Great Places to Visit - City or Country.

Sometimes it's hard to tell whether you are in the city (Melbourne) or the country (Tocumwal). Bet you can't tell which is which in these photos.  Some are of Darebin Creek in Ivanhoe, Melbourne, Victoria.  And some are of The Murray River at Tocumwal N.S.W.  Both places Miss Lily and I like to go walking.  We live in the city, but have a holiday house in the country, across the road from my parents, so we can visit them when we are having an "escape" from the city.  Love trees, creeks, rivers, winter wattles....in short nature.  Without nature, I couldn't stay in the city, it would drive me crazy with it's traffice, noise, rush and tear, concrete jungle, but the beautiful park lands we have in Melbourne save my sanity.

Great Places To Visit - Sydney Opera House, Sydney, Australia

The Sydney Opera House. What can I say? A marvel of architecture. Try gob smacking up close and personal. I was fascinated by it. Loved being able to "touch" it and walk around it, and just watch people admiring this amazing structure. It has been a long time since we have been to Sydney and actually gone done to the Opera House, walked around and then sat at a cafe having some lunch and just admired it and the bridge. Could have sat there for hours. It's just so stunningly beautiful! Peek a Boo at the Bridge.
