  1. So relieved we have a Tong Li, green grocer, and Aldi nearby. Coles and Woolies are really taking the piss with their prices now :/.

  3. I missed the Landrover on a pole, but now my wife is driving and so I got to clearly see the Giant Koala.

    Phew!... I mean, it would have been a disaster to miss both!

  4. #Australiana Just visited The Cedars which was the home of Hans Heysen.

    I'd never heard of him before, but he is a very famous Australian artist and I feel a bit more Australian now that I know a lot more about him and his family, in particular, his daughter Nora (also a famous artist).

    Beautiful property, gardens etc. Great guided tour.

    I bought a print of his work "Droving into the light" to hang at home to feel even more Australian!

  6. #Anko branded items combined to keep the dust out and heat in for #BuildersTea.

    Kmart back around the start of Covid-19 went slightly #Australiana. The #Kookaburra cup being one of a series.

    The grey lid is what remains of an Anko squat square sided 4-cup #Teapot that received a mortal blow in the dishrack. 😟

    Neither item is made from low-heat-transfer ceramic.

  7. Have you ever heard of the Birdman of the Coorong?

    You're no doubt familiar with the exploits of other notorious bushrangers, such as Ned Kelly, Ben Hall, and Captain Thunderbolt, but this ostrich-riding felon is less etched into our national psyche.

  8. A little bit of #Australiana - an #Australian #bush scene on a brick wall facing a busy highway in suburban #brightonEast #Australia.

    It’s a new addition to the area, which is a part of #Melbourne’s #urbancanvas project which has seen the creation and display of up to 30 new public pieces of art pop up, over the recent few months.

    I’m slowly getting around to each one of them… one at a time.

    This project is sponsored by #Resene, a local paint producer and supplier.

    Artist; #Soleveins, aka #Veins (painted 2023).

  9. What a cool and vibrant mural located in #Bentleigh #Australia.

    Fun, nostalgic (old ute) and so #Australiana with its Gumtree’s, ring tailed possum, bird and bees!

    Good work, guys!!

    Artists: Hayden Dewar and Mike Makatron

  10. I just love this mural. I’ve posted some time ago, but can’t get enough of it

    Found it again in my travels recently.

    The #rosella is astonishingly good. So too the #wombat to the right of scene in the second pic.

    Painted by HaydenDewar.com in 2019, this scene complements another painted on brick, just off Acland Street in StKilda. It has the same humanoid figures and #Australiana themes.

    I’ll visit that and feature it here, sometime in the not too distant future.

    This mural (pictured in this post) however, is located in #Bentleigh #Australia.

    Gorgeous, and intriguing huh?

  11. A little bit of #Australiana in all its flora and fauna glory.

    Just delightful, in a narrow suburban (mix of residential and commercial) alleyway that is complemented by an outside cafe in #Balaclava #Australia.

    Twas a beautiful day to view these gorgeous scenes.

  12. Corymbia ficifolia is commonly known as the #redfloweringgum.

    It is a species of small tree that is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.

    This one was teeming with #bees and shining brightly in the evening sun during a catch-up coffee with a good friend in #StkildaEast #Australia.

    We all scoffed lamingtons, which are a delight to eat on this #AustraliaDay.

    Very #Australiana!
