Love Letter from... Australia!


Detail of the facade of the Golden Sheath Hotel in Double Bay, Sydney

Dear readers! I have been absent from Blogland for weeks! I am now on holiday in Australia and, you may not be surprised to hear, have had little opportunity or patience for sitting at a computer. You may, however, be surprised to hear that I have been without my own camera since leaving England and have been reliant on friends for loans of cameras when I have been out and about, but that has limited my chances for going wild with photographing. Which is a shame because Sydney has so many lovely buildings! A giddy richness of early twentieth-century offerings, in particular...

I have now departed Sydney for the time being (though I will return there before going back to England) and am in the countryside of the state of Victoria. I have also now acquired a camera to use as and when I will. So, expect something more hopefully sometime at a point in the not-too-distant future.

    1. I very much am! Too much of a good time - my blog is suffering! But I am storing up lots of pictures and post ideas to appear on here at some point, sooner or later! xxx

  2. Enjoy country Victoria, there are some gorgeous little towns with fabulous gold rush (mid-late 19th century) buildings. Will you make it to Melbourne?

    1. I'm loving country Victoria! It's so pretty, and I'm loving so many of the lovely little buildings. I've passed quickly through Melbourne and am heading back in for a few days this week - really looking forward to exploring!

  3. That is a lovely facade on the building. The colours are all so rich too, especially against that sunny blue sky!
