things aussie..

Summer vacation is over... how quickly the time passed. It was so wonderful to be home again in Australia, even if it was winter! My bird friends greeted us daily on the back verandah, the kookaburras laughed, the last of the roses in the the garden bloomed, the wattle was in full flower and the gum trees smelled as wonderful as ever!. Blissful, lazy days spent reading the paper and catching up on all my favourite aussie magazines. Walks with Chester, savouring longed-for-foods again and special moments spent with friends and family.... all too brief!
