great southern land...

...and junior and I are schlepping (3600kms took less than four hours so schlepping perhaps not the term) across this mighty continent.
At the start there were rain and storms.
Then there were clouds and then...
Dorothea Mackellar's My Country of the wide brown land and salt pans.

Finally there was Brisbane...warm and wintery!...and a week of hols.

And THANK YOU for all the 2000 blip wishes ...xxx
