I consider myself very lucky to live in Australia where I can get up and walk at 7am to see seagulls floating on the lake I walk around.
and men swimming in the early sunshine.
Where I can look out my front door and see Lucas and his mates playing cricket.
and girls making out they are fielding.
I can walk to the end of my street and be greeted by this view
or this
and on the odd occasions I get to see sites like this on my morning walk.
For more places to see around the world head over here.

Happy Australia Day! Lovely WARM shots of your world. I'm feeling right cold at the moment.
Hapopy Australia Day......we sure do live in a good place..........
Great post and pictures!!
Thanks for sharing your part of the world with us!!

I have to agree that it's very nice where you live! And even better, you like it too! (Too many people wish they lived somewhere other than where they do.)
Ahhh...you do live in a nice area!!! Really inspiring!! :o)
I think you found your perfect niche under the sun. And what a niche you have shown us.
Great scenes, love the chair having a swim.lol.
maybe someone wanted to sit where it was cool :-) . We, well hub has been playing cricket with Milo in the yard -- just a little bit more clothing tho - including gloves !!
You have a great day for your day and some really sharp cool images.
Your shots brought a smile to my face, thanks for sharing.
Cheers!

Thanks for sharing the pictures - all very interesting and beautiful. Now that chair in the water is a little odd, but then, that is what makes it fun!
Beautiful shots of the lake and your area. Fun to see someone playing cricket. None of that here in Utah.
Chair in the lake is pretty interesting...
Great views and what a truly Australian post for Australia Day!!
Somebody brought the wrong chair to the beach to celebrate Australia Day. Great images.
Oh you live i a stunning area, and btw that piccie of the swimmer is competition level - stunning!
Agreed ... you are lucky to be living there. Nice place.
The morning light is lovely and the still water lends itself wonderfully to reflections. I love the cumfy armchair, what every selfrespecting lake should have, and great to see that back yard cricket still exists. Nice post.
Leanne, beat you by 1 degree yesterday. On the farm there is nothing to effectively break the wind like fences in town... it was a killer. Yep we're at 37C this morning too.
We stay at the Jamieson Caravan Pk., they have 2 de-lux cabins each with two bedrooms and lounge dining/kitchen and bathroom and verandah.

Usually booked put during the height of holiday season but mostly available in spring and autumn with magical autumn colours.
Yes we are very lucky-love your photos. That is definitely the best way to field!!Hope you are keeping cool
Beautiful pictures and beautiful weather.
Beautiful photos, Leanne! Like yours always are!
You really live in a beautiful area.
Ha*!* I found someone had dumped their old fridge and tv along where I take my walk ... wonder how long it would take to kit out a house ;)
Beautiful!!!!

It does look very lovely there and your photos are gorgeous.
Love the armchair - I reckon someone got sick of the heatwave and decided to find somewhere cooler to sit :-)
