Redrocks Get back, soon on Redrocks
When I go to a record shop, I use to have a look on world music, as I said before, music of elsewhere. Yesterday, in a shop, I was surprised to see Gainsbourg and accordion music in the shielves of world music CD. Quand je vais dans un magasin de disques,...
Ah, at least the Opera. I like it. Opening in 1973, it was built in the sixties and was stopped due to its cost. Lots of Italians, greeks,… immigrate in Australia with this opportunity. It was made a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2007. Several concert...
As well as others places in Australia, Blue Mountains must be seen. Colors at sunset and sunrise are, once more, gorgeous. On sunrise, you see rocks up to a white cloud stuck in the bottom of valleys. Fantastic. Yes, you must walk in the night to go to...
I stayed there for watching the chess game and for observing people around. Time is stuck on the game here. They discuss about the good strategy and how to avoid traps. They take all time. Here, chess that's the name of the game. (Yes I know, with my...
In Royal Botanic Gardens, this big tree is amazing. The macrophylla (it’s its name) is all rainforest types. It starts life as a seedling growing high on existing tree and slowly strangles them as its roots reach the ground. It’s planted as a shade tree...
I came back to Sydney for running the Sydney Morning Herald half marathon. In Katooma, I shared my room with a runner who was there for a big race on Saturday : a hundred K’s running in the mountain. Terrible. I’ve walked a few hours on some tracks where...
I had my passport and my boarding pass. My visa had been checked. I've just read "Piège nupial". Everything was OK. Good. Very good. I was worried about the boarding but not a lot. A announcement said : "Mister Claude Havard is being waited for immediate...
J'ai mon passeport et ma carte d'embarquement. Mon visa a été contrôlé. Je viens juste de lire "Piège nuptial". Tout est OK. J'étais inquiet pour l'empbarquement, mais pas trop. Une annonce se fit entendre : "Monsieur Havard est attendu porte 31 pour...
Je suis revenu à Sydney afin de courrir le semi-marathon du Sydney Morning Herald. A Katooma, je partageais ma chambre avec un coureur qui était là pour une grande course samedi : 100 kilomètres en courant dans la montagne. Terrible. J’ai marché quelques...
Stuck in France but always having a look on international experiences. Les découvertes sont devenues plus rares depuis quelques temps. Bien sûr, Moscou et Kaluga, fin 2013, ont été un beau moment guidé par Antoine et une savoureuse anecdote avec Axel,...
Jamming with Aussies. I could play on Australian acoustic guitars (Maton http://www.maton.com.au and Cole Clarck - http://www.coleclarkguitars.com/) with other musicians, not bad at all, in Sydney City. It was really a great time for an hour. I prefered...
Each day, I try to discover a backpacker accommodation without booking. Sometimes, I find ones, sometimes not, sometimes I have good surprise, sometimes I am disappointed, sometimes not. Nomads in Melbourne was noisy and wasn’t so neighbourly. In Tasmania,...
I've updated this article with some birds I've seen in Australia, just for fun. I give it my hand, but it doesn't want !!!
Time is flying here. Bubbles fly too in Hyde Park.
Ah, parrots. These birds yell when they are flying around you. Except if you give them the solution to have water… Nice but noisy !!
Le temps passe à une vitesse ici. Les bulles volent aussi à Hyde Park. (oui, ça n'a pas le même effet qu'en anglais...)
Ah les perroquets. Ceux-là crient quand ils volent autour de vous. Sauf si vous leur donnez la solution pour avoir de l’eau. Joli mais bruyant !!
Whales makes their migration not so far from Bondi and Coogee. I've could see them by boat, but not from the coast. There were a few waves, but the weather was very good yesterday. And surfers were still on the ocean, even in winter.
Les baleines font leur migration pas très loin de Bondi et Coogee. Je ai pu les voir en bateau, mais pas de la cote. Il y avait quelques vagues, mais le temps était très bon hier. Et les surfers étaient encore sur l'océan, même en hiver.
J'ai mis à jour cet article avec des oiseaux vus en Australie, juste pour le plaisir. Je lui donne ma main, mais il n'en veut pas !!!
Near Kings Canyon, friendly people. No worries...
Opal valley. There are holes everywhere in this place. They make holes looking for opals. People live in grottos, due to the heat. It's around 65°C in Summer. We slept in an haunted grotto, but we have known that the day after. I didn't hear any ghos...
May be you have seen this picture. Coober Pedy is strange, amazing but bizarre... A place where it should be very difficult to live. Peut-être avez-vous vu cette photo. Coober Pedy est étrange, étonnant mais bizarre... Un endroit probablement difficile...
If you can't focus on the photo to read originals comments : Don't run Don't push your wife ! Give her to me !! Beware No diving, no fish down there ! except sharks ? Don't walk backwards How to dispose of an English backpacker : ask him to take a picture....
Yep, music is everywhere. Musicians develop their instruments too for fun. Oui, la musique est partout. Les musiciens developpent leurs instruments pour le plaisir.
