I watched in slo-mo as it bounced off a concrete stanchion and then landed and rolled on a roof 3 floors down. A replacement cost me over AUD500, but the man smiled sweetly at the barrel he had me over.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079315872659077507.post-82681678325554921532010-10-10T02:41:06.445+11:002010-10-10T02:41:06.445+11:00Ah a bit harsh.

On recent posts, people guessed Australia as my husband and my "once in a lifetime vacation." He offered to take me there even though he has been for work, but I was concerned that I couldn't handle a 24 hr trip. <br /><br />For years, I've had friends from down under and seen gorgeous photos on their blogs or emailed to me. Someday, I hope I can go in person. Glad you enjoyed this so much!Gelhttp://soulcrayons.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079315872659077507.post-82018128682602423672010-09-16T04:16:57.109+10:002010-09-16T04:16:57.109+10:00enjoyed the trip thoroughly. would love to hear th...enjoyed the trip thoroughly. would love to hear the symphony music in gorge.North County Film Clubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13683794164957833415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079315872659077507.post-4191581353444041772010-09-11T15:17:43.861+10:002010-09-11T15:17:43.861+10:00For someone liked me trapped in the suburbs and cl...For someone liked me trapped in the suburbs and classrooms of Adelaide at the moment,your blog is food for the soul,and if I were plonked down into Katherine Gorge immediately, it would be bliss.<br /> I laughingly acknowledge that you are right Julie,in expressing that experiences are all relative to what has "been before". It's like when we Aussies get "out-castled or cathedraled" overseas. It does not deflect from the magnificance of the structures, it is just part of the travel experience most can relate to.

Our boat 'captain' took us right up close to the rock wall and I remember we saw several freshwater crocs sunning themselves.<br />Cheers,<br /><a href="http://melbournedailyphotodaily.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Melbourne Daily Photo</a>BlossomFlowerGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771668346318423898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079315872659077507.post-26220675842913294682010-09-01T08:19:08.462+10:002010-09-01T08:19:08.462+10:00Thank you Glennis ... you should come on over for ...Thank you Glennis ... you should come on over for a look at our North-west ... so different from down around the south-east where I live.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079315872659077507.post-45983508338683849252010-09-01T07:49:38.199+10:002010-09-01T07:49:38.199+10:00I haven't been here!

They're exquisite. <br /><br />But I can imagine the tedium of having to share such beauty with truckloads, bus loads, boat loads of tourists. <br /><br />We hate ourselves when reflected back in the form of a tourist. <br /><br />Still you have given your bloggers something to behold and apart from your words, your images show few signs of the dreaded tourists.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing the good stuff and sparing us the rest.Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04015624747225433940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079315872659077507.post-17758411974462221782010-08-24T02:04:11.793+10:002010-08-24T02:04:11.793+10:00wow, nice pictures...the place is very amazing, wi...wow, nice pictures...the place is very amazing, wish I can visit there someday :)Fexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09746931172045950645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079315872659077507.post-59850475832512465472010-08-21T19:38:23.527+10:002010-08-21T19:38:23.527+10:00lots of interesting places you been to.
