Our World Tuesday

Our World Tuesday is a new meme for me - as if I needed another.  But I noticed there were not a lot of Australian contributors and as this is such a beautiful country I thought I would like to share some of it with you.

These photos were taken on a school trip to a tiny Aboriginal settlement in the Flinders Ranges in the north of South Australia. Most of the beautiful spots we visited are off the beaten track and some of them can only be accessed in the company of a member of the Nepabunna Community as they are sacred sites. We were very fortunate to have the opportunity to meet some wonderful people and to share their lives for a fantastic week.

These first two shots were taken from Yourambulla Caves.






While at Nepabunna we hiked into Vadhalina Gorge.


and walked back out along the creek bed.


I just loved this old tree.


and of course the beautiful Eucalypts that abound in the Flinders.



More next week.
