Back in Sydney where there's still fishing and boating! Photographs taken yesterday; there are still rain clouds around. I might just leave this post here for a while again ... ;)

That's a fisherman Simon, and not the sea parting but a rock platform! Heehee. Notice the colour at last ... but as the sun went down!

Some really wonderful, rain soaked, photos Anonybird. The one of the misty highway is impressive.

And is that the rail bridge in the background of one of the family photos? If so, you could almost hit the B&B we stayed in with a rock from there :) Oh and the first photo of your two boys being 'drowned' by the weather is a charming shot. Well taken!

It has all been very interesting and attractive, a good journal of your 'summer' holiday.

There was a trick to the 'misty highway' shot; had to be going at a certain speed for the raindrops to fly off the windscreen! Thankyou G3TFilms - for the inspiration of the location to visit also :) That is indeed the rail bridge and I KNOW where the rocks were ;) I suppose the 'charming' boys don't look too perturbed in that shot – those drowning ones look better at full blown size! MWHAHHAHAA

Thankyou ElizT, we swore to never go away again for the ‘Autumn’ school holidays last year after a flooded visit to chilly Canberra … and forgot ;)

Great wet views. Strange how before I saw your blog my only image of Australia was total desert.

Desert is probably the only environment that won't be found on this blog Caroline ;)

I agree with Caroline, that was my image of Australia! Glad to be disabused of it.

These photos are lovely. Nice dramatic clouds and subtle colors. Cool bridge.

WOW, I find that amazing Mary Stebbins Taitt, and would have thought we were known for our beaches and bushland, if not the wildlife. It probably doesn't help to know that when I thought of America, I thought of canyons and rattlesnakes like in the cowboy and indian movies - before Blogger. HAHA ;)

Beaches also conjure up images of tracts of plantless sands... very like wet deserts :-)

True Caroline, but the sand would wash away in Sydney without plants holding the edges of the beaches together :)
