a tale of our journey


Australia 2019



This is the tale of our trip down under
Places we’ve seen & sights to wonder

Our Story begins with a very long flight
A journey of over a day and a night

We arrived in Melbourne early Thursday
And looked forward to our weekend stay

At 88 floors up off the ground
From the eureka tower you see for miles around

The state library was as an awesome sight
With book lined shelves from left to right

Our visit to Melbourne was soon at an end
And goodbyes said to a very good friend

Tasmania is the next stop on our list
With several places not to be missed

We saw a koala and a kangaroo
And learnt that wombats have square poo!

We took a trip to wineglass bay
With several stops along the way

We visited Bruny a gorgeous place
With beaches a lighthouse and so much space

Before we know it, our week here is done
We met with friends and had so much fun

Sydney is the next stop on our tour
The harbour bridge just like the brochure!

The blue mountains too were a wonderful spot
The views from the lookout a perfect shot

We’ve learnt of Australia’s convict past
And made memories that will forever last

Before we know we are on our way home
Old friends seen and new ones sown
