Oz - there's no place quite like it.

Oz - or to be more exact - Australia. There's no place quite like it.

Literally this is a country that has everything except history - being only just over 200 years old. I am sure someone will correct me on this.

I visited Melbourne and Sydney at the end of last century and have never forgetten seeing the Sydney Opera House - a truly wonderful experience. Australia has some beautiful beaches, wild forests and a totally different 'outdoors' outlook on life - because of the wonderful climate.

Whether I shall ever have the money to revisit is another matter, but at least I have some wonderful memories.

I regret not making it to Ayers Rock and the city of Perth - lack of pennies was the problem.
