Hello I am back
Hello everyone - here I am again after a great trip around Australia. I
have not a hope of catching up with all the threads but I did read one form Noreen and it mentioned Gem - does that mean our lovely Gemini is back with us ? I will not bore you with details but the highlights of the trip was first the three days on the wonderful train from Sydney to Perth on which we also took our car. Then three days at the Benedictine Monastery in New Norcia Visiting Monkey Mia where one walks in the water among the wild dolphins . Visiting Bidyadanga an aboriginal settlement about four hundreds Ks north of Port Headland and three hundred Ks south of Broome - and it is the only place inbetween !! One has to have permission to visit aboriginal land and this was made possible by their being a school teacher there who is a Servas Host and so all was arranged for us and while there we attended Mass on the beach with the aboriginal community which was the most wonderful experience. Taking a flight over the Kimberley area including the Bungle Bungle Mountains and landing on Lake Argyle. and seeing form the air the large Argyle Diamond mine - said to be the biggest in the world. Another flight took us right up across the "top end" of Australia and along the shore of the Timor Sea. This flight stopped at a Mission Station for morning tea and a Cattle Station for lunch. Then back in our own state seeing green for the first times in months !!!!! It is good to be back and I hope you have all had good health and that no bad news came your way - I take this opportunity to send my sympathies to anyone affected personally by the London bombings.God Bless Gwen -- Gwen Kelly |
