Simple as That

Making Everyday Beautiful

Blogging from the Land Down Under

Thursday, June 7, 2012

Just popping in quickly to share a few photos from beautiful Australia. It’s been an amazing trip so far. Unbelievably amazing!  I can’t wait to share all the details with you!!  ðŸ™‚

Feeding Kangaroos, cuddling with a Koala, helmet diving and taking to the skies to see the Great Barrier Reef….somebody please pinch me! This place is amazing!!

I’m officially in love with Queensland and the people here! Everyone has been so kind and welcoming and  the variety of things to see and do and eat in this area is truly incredible. 

I have three more fun filled days left in Tropical Queensland and I already feel so blessed to have seen and experienced what I have thus far! I’m going to let the pictures speak for themselves and look forward to giving a full report when I get back home. 🙂

You can follow the remainder of my trip to Queensland, Australia on Facebook, twitter and instagram @rebecca_simpleasthat. Use hashtag #QldBlog to follow all the bloggers here in Queensland on twitter and instagram. Take care everyone! Be back soon. 🙂

    Love that you love our country. I visited Canada last year and loved it 🙂
    Rebecca, I notice you have a macbook air in your first photo. I would love to know if you do all your editing on it. I have one and am having some issues with colour when I get photos printed. I have found it hard to find anyone (from the blogs I love to visit) that has the air…most people seem to have the macbook pro. I would LOVE your thoughts on this. Do you calibrate your screen ? Thanks
