Autumn in Australia

last week kevin went to mittagong, 1 hr drive south of sydney and he said he saw some marvellous autumn colours , just like canada.
 
on thur, i decided to drive down and experience (after working full 5 days during easter for andrew helping emergency patients from all over sydney, i decided to give myself a treat).
 
in the morning, it was raining heavily but i decided to go and have a good time, no matter what.  the rain started to get heavier and heavier and as i was driving, i was 'talking to the gohonzon' and said: 'this is really not fun!'.  interestingly enough, as soon as i got out of M5, i saw clear skies and even had sunshine.
 
i drove around mittagong, bowral, berrima,   stopping every five minutes to drink in the beautify scenery and took hundreds of photos.
 
then i went back to the hotel and had a rest.  in the evening i went out for dinner, and had salmon fillet, cooked to perfection, skin crispy, inside pink and juicy, and i had a glass of locally produced shiraz.  then i went back to the hotel, soaked in a hot bath and had a very good sleep.
 
the next morning, i continued my (colour) seeing and drove to bundanoon, during which time there were a few drizzles, but they only made the whole atmosphere more romantic.  i then had a country style delicious lunch (vegie frittata with salmon and salad), a cup of cuppacino, and then i went home, feeling GREAT.
 
later  at night, i found that dog dog had shit on the floor, showing his disappointment that i went away.  andrew then said: if i can, i would also like to shit on the floor too
 
anyway, a few years ago, i went to canada, USA (Vermont where i was bitten by a fox, i mean a fox with rabbi.  hey anyone interested in the story pls let me know and i will send you the write up) to catch a glimpse of the autumn colours, little did i know that all the things i had been looking for, travelling long distances, are right at my door step.
 
am going to share some photos with u.

 這個旅程給我的啟示是:我們千方百計老遠四周的去尋找某人(伴侶)或某事(景物等), 怎知那人或那事就在咫尺天涯在眼前
