Not even two months into the new year and I am
already feeling a need for a break. A getaway. A rendezvous!
Location wise I have the following in mind.
...a verandah,
...gum trees,
...endless blue skies,
...the sound of cicadae in the background!
That's all.
I was in Sydney last week and chanced upon this little gem of a book at the airport. "Give me a Home Among the Gum Trees" by Bob Brown.
Sure it's not Pride & Prejudice but it still allowed for a flight of fancy or two.
Who would not adore characters the likes of sheep shearing kangaroos, a Vegemite eating Platypus or a Wombat on a rocking chair. I, for one was sold!
Daydreaming about my verandah and a break in the land Down Under.
Soon. Very soon!
