Two cities, some mountains and a resort…

I always dreamed of going to Australia, since I was quite young. The calling of OZ spelt adventure in my mind and not only that. At a very young age I tied to convince my parent to move to Australia for part of the year. I thought it would have been perfect to spend Spring and Summer in Greece and Fall and Winder in Australia thus I would get to live summer days year around and in my childish mind skip school too!
Well that plan didn’t work out, my parents never bought into it and I was left dreaming of following the summer.
Through my adult years I met sever Australians, some of which I come to call friends. I came to hear many nice and some not so nice story about the Land of Oz. When the opportunity arose to attend a friends wedding in Brisbane I wasn’t the one to say no. It was bad enough to wait a year for the trip.
I am not going to dwell on the history of Australia, partly because in the past few weeks I had several conversations about how this fair lady came to exist and party because my views my and theories aren’t always well received by some people. However, if you are interested in reading about it this link will give you a bit more info: http://www.cultureandrecreation.gov.au/articles/australianhistory/
Instead I will share with you a short photos journey of my trip.
It started in Brisbane moved to the Sun shine cost to the Hyatt Regency resort, from there to Sydney and the Blue mountains.
It was a short but fantastic 5 start view of an old dream.
