Welcome
to the "Land of down under"
For
this month's travel ezine on Ozzieland.
Rich,
varied, loud and sometimes brash its' there waiting to be experienced.
From
the ultra modern city life, beaches and wildlife to the "dreamtime"
of the Aborigine, the contrast is truly inspiring...

G'day
& welcome
to a Pom's slant on Australia
Find
everything you need to know about Australia from when to go and
what
to see to where to stay etc.
|
It's
big, it's dry and it's hot but...
It's English-speaking and has the best beaches and most stunning natural scenery
in the world.
It's
a country - a continent, actually - where vibrant, modern cities thrive against
the backdrop of the sizzling Outback.
And
whose inhabitants' favourite way to stay cool in the sweltering heat is to sink
a stubbie of the amber nectar.
Yes
it's Australia, the world's biggest desert island, aka the Lucky Country.
|
Lucky
because everything is cheap, the weather is good and, as thousands of travellers
find every year, everyone's living the life of Riley.
It's
blindingly obvious the moment you step off the plane that no-one has a care in
the world.
Not
such a lucky country, though, for the poor Aborigines, who found themselves hunted,
kidnapped and hounded to the fringes of society by the British settlers, where
they remain to this day.
