In a suburb of Wollongong, NSW, is the NanTien Buddhist temple, the largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere.
The gardens are beautiful and carefully arranged to add to the peaceful ambience. This tree-lined stairway was an inspiring start to our visit and for more tree inspirations, go to Becky’s page.
In many parts of the world, and Australia is no exception, the building of dams and other changes to the natural water course, results in many trees being flooded and they die. The ghostly outlines of what remains stretch as far as the eye can see, accusing fingers pointing to the sky.
These trees are part of Becky’s square challenge.
The Murray would be the longest river in the world, but when they were exploring they started at one end and named it, not realising it was connected to the other end, which someone else named something different.
Oh well, world records aren’t everything.
All squared up for Becky’s squares this month.
As I glanced at the window of this chocolate store in Rockdale, I received a message from the heavens.
And I captured it to use in Becky’s Bright squares.
