Wordless Wednesday: My Favourite Place

At the end of a steep bush track in the Border Rangers lies a magical place, a hidden rainforest gully. A surprise discovery, a place that holds many happy memories. A place so beautiful to me that it feel like my soul is uplifted and I unconsciously smile! Surrounded by the smell of the lantana and rainforest. Punctuated by the call of the whip-bird, and the crack of leaves and twigs underfoot. Immersed in the sound of the gushing waterfall. I've taken my children to visit my favourite, magical place. They wonder if there are fairies hiding under the gigantic mushrooms....


I'm linking up this post with My Little Drummer Boys , Sakura Haruka , mums own words and Tina's for Wordless Wednesday. Come and see the beautiful and clever wordless wednesday posts. You can also see my shout out to my favourite photography blogs here

I'm also linking for the first time with tots and me

    I love Border Rangers, a place I call home. We must make the effort to take our children there too.

      Yes, very similar! I was in far northern NSW; the Border Ranges....between Kyogle and Brisbane. Very close to Mt Tambourine! A nice place for us Canberrans to holiday wasn't it :)

      It's a new feature that just seems to have appeared on my blog in the last few days. I've seen a few comments on twitter about it appearing on others blogs as well. Sometimes it doesn't seem to work though.
