A Collection of Flowers

A change from the Outback to some flowers for today's post.  I hope you enjoy. 

Here is a [ link ] to the Wreath Flowers I photographed and posted in 2013, certainly worth looking at as they are a very different plant and only found is one place which is Western Australia.

A small collection of flowers from Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Victoria, and Tasmania.

Above the Sturt's Desert Pea from Western Australia and below the Clivia from Queensland.

Above is Eucalyptus flower in South Australia and Wattle also from South Australia.

 

Gazanias growing wild in the State of Victoria in a town.

Below is Wattle, many varieties of Wattle and it flowers at different times in different States of Australia.

A few Pubs

A few random photos of Hotels in the Outback and the train Station in Longreach, Queensland.

Julia Creek Hotel.  We had driven for miles or km before we came across Julia Creek, there wasn't a great deal there apart from another Hotel, a few houses and a shop so we continued on. There are about 511 people in the Creek.  Also there is a Caravan Park which we never even looked for as we were in our car.  It was a very lonely road we didn't even see another car but we did see a train going west, the train driver tooted and we waved madly as it was good to see someone :)

We have photos of the McKinley Pub in Queensland where from the Movie Crocodile Dundee went to the Pub called Walkabout Creek Hotel.  Another lonely road in what seemed the middle of no where.  Population about 178 people.
