Wendy’s secret garden

The beautiful secret garden is the work of Wendy Whiteley. She needed some kind of outlet for her grief after her husband died in 1992, so, to distract herself from the pain, she started cleaning garbage and weeds from the old and abandoned railway yard. In the past 28 years, she transformed that patch of land into an incredibly beautiful secret, hidden garden. You can eat, write or meet people while at the same time feeling like you are the only ones there. At the same time, the garden offers a beautiful view over the Sydney Harbour and Harbour Bridge. #wendys #secret #garden #australia

Wendy’s secret garden

No one ever told her to stop planting new plants and trees on the land she didn’t own, but when the New South Wales Government turned their attention to her work, they decided to give a 30-year lease to the city council, so that she could peacefully continue with her work and the garden could further evolve. The garden is a peaceful alternative to the more touristy parts of Sydney Harbour. It is a lush green landscape with pathways through the maze of plants and many strategically positioned benches to give you a sense of privacy. #wendys #secret #garden #Sydney #australia

Eric the Pliosaur

Eric the Pliosaur was first discovered in a small Australian town in 1987. It has the unique quality of having become opalized across the millennia, giving the bones a unique shine and leading some to try to sell the pieces as jewelry. Unfortunately, the high costs of fossil preservation and reconstruction eventually made the businessman give up and look into selling the bones. There was also a great deal of interest from gem and jewelry buyers who wanted to turn the bones into accessories. Luckily, in the end, the Australian Museum purchased Eric for their collection. #eric #pliosaur

Sydney Observatory

It is the oldest working refracting lens telescope in the Southern Hemisphere. In some ways, however, the observatory was built simply to keep another instrument, the “time ball,” functioning. If you go at night you will be able to observe the night sky through both a modern telescope and the historic original telescope from 1874. If it’s a cloudy night, visitors are invited to participate in a planetarium show in a very small planetarium instead. The planetarium show is an experience in itself. #sydney #observatory #australia #telescope #night

    Australia

    The first thing to remember about Australia when you are planning a trip there is its size. It is BIG. Only Russia, Canada, China, the USA and Brazil are larger. This single nation has three separate time zones: Sydney in the south east is two hours ahead of Perth in the west. So it is not possible to just go and “see Australia”. Flying from one side to the other is 2,000 miles and takes over three and a half hours; flying from Melbourne in the far south to Darwin in the tropical north will also take about three and a half hours. #australia #map #trip
