Mushroom's muscle


Look at this funny photo!!
This is a mushroom, not a composite picture.
I found it in a Korean portal site.
Nature is so amazing, isn't it?

Beautiful time in nature.


Our class and sally's class went to Royal National Park in Bundeena 3weeks ago as an excursion. Marion picked me up in morning in caringbah which is place of mine. We went cronulla station and we join together with the other people. Lei and Wei Yun were there already.

We went to Bundeena by ferry. It took about 30 minutes but I felt it is like 3 hours or more because I felt sick. However, when I got to Bundeena, I felt all right. The weather was bit chilly but it is good for a walk - not too hot. We walked along to Jibbon beach and passed unspoilt bushland then arrived at huge stone outcrop with carvings of several animals such as a Kangaroo, a sting ray, a whale. It was amaging that it's carved by aborigine a long long time ago. Since when did they start live here, and what they had ate? Maybe kangaroos, sting rays? Anyway we had great time before it rained on our way for lunch. It was unexpected and sudden in the bush. But it was not too bad for me although my shoes was wet. The weather got better soon.

After that, we all had lunch in RSL club and went back to Cronulla. This time in the ferry, i was better because of breeze. I had lots of fun today. I felt sorry for my husband and son because they were not there. I would like to go there again with them.

Hidden stone etchings beyond a bushland



There are some Aboriginal rock art around Sydney. One of those is in Bundeena which is the place we went last week. It is 30minutes away from Cronulla by ferry. Or you can drive through the Royal National Park. Aborigine people lived there since 30000 years ago or more. They called it Dharawal. The Dharawal people used to swim, fish, make canoes, carve, holiday and camp on the pristine shores of Port Hacking. If you walk along Jibbon beach, you’ll reach a unspoilt bushland. Through the bushland for about 400metres and you can find a huge sandstone outcrop with carvings that include a local mummaga (law giver), a stingray, a killer whale more than 11 metres long, a turtle, a kangaroo and a murrera.
