A Sunday Drive

A beautiful day here today so we made the most of it by taking a drive in the country. Took along a sandwich and coffee in the thermos as there are definetly no shops or cafes out here. Our drive took us through farmland and around Lake Hinds.

Not much water in parts

Colour starting to appear on the roadside

 

Gravel road, green pastures, yellow sand and blue sky

A windmill or two or three

These sheep started to run away as we stopped the car, but then did an about face and came back to see what we were looking at

  4. Magnificent country. For some reason, my son always wanted to come there to visit. We even bought him a tshirt that had Australia written on the front of it because he loved your country so much. Maybe it was because of the movies he saw about Australia.

  5. Gorgeous photos! I, too, have been fascinated with Australian since I was a child despite living on the other side of the world. I love seeing the combination of stark branches and red earth. :)
