Australia- Part 1

Now is the time of year when I like to remember summertime.  Granted, I spent much of my summer in Australia’s winter, but it wasn’t quite as cold as Indiana in December, so I’m happy to reminisce.  Here is a look back on some beauty I captured during the first part of my trip to Australia in June and July, 2011.  I went with my parents and we were able to get some wonderful quality time with my sister, brother-in-law, and four adorable nephews.  We were also able to travel north from Sydney to visit our McCown cousins (my mom’s first cousin and his family) in Brisbane and Toowoomba.  It was a great summer of making memories.  Here are a few examples of the beauty that Australia holds.  More to come soon…
