First landing

The long awaited day finally came.
 
The day I waited to see this view; of the Land Downunder.
 
 
I finally 'landed' on this corner of the huge continent on 12 May 2013.
It was mid autumn in these part of the world.
 
 
 
 
Maybe it was the weather, or maybe it was the occasion, or maybe it was my first experience of its mild autumn.
 
Somehow, all these 'maybe's rolled into one, made me realised how beautiful a fallen maple leave really is.
 
{I even brought home 2 pieces of such leaves. I am not sure if it is allowed to bring in leaves from another country into this country, but I did pray hard that I would not be dragged into quarantine because if it.}
 
 
Picture was taken in one of the winery I went to. See, even the locals love their maple leave.
 
So, do excuse this woman from the tropics who has 'leaf crush', ya..
 
Anyway, I had a wonderful trip getting to know this new place.
 
And most importantly, I am very happy that my visa is now ACTIVATED..
