Worshipping the great mother land

NOTE: if you are reading this as an e-mail you really need to go to the blog

Now I know people worship lots of different things and I also know that some people think Australia is a great place but I never thought I would come across this on my travels.
Within the Notre Dame, the Catholic church I mentioned before, the immense church was lit by streams of light filtering through the numerous stained glass windows, and hundreds of candles flickered as a sign of life and memory of others. There was the opportunity to light a candle in front of many different shrines, from magnificent paintings of Mary to large crosses ornately decorated. But as we turned the corner and came across this most awe inspiring and memorable shrine I knew that this was the one for us.

What an amazing "shrine" but no AFL player taking a "speccie".! Swans lost. Your photos continue to amaze us and friends but just take a couple showing Kath or you in these fantastic places or people will think you just stayed in bed and bought post cards!!
