Beautiful landscape!
The street painter is really good and the last picture is jusy amazing!

[canadian_turtle]

I loved watching the street painter for a while, it was amazing how he made his art.

Your pictures of the places you see are always so completely amazing. Wow. AND WICKED OMG. <3

[canadian_turtle]

Thank you :) It's just coz Australia is so amazingly beautiful.

I LOVE Wicked <3 I saw it once before and already adored it but now I am obsessed, omg!

[subtle__sarcasm]

I would so love to see it on stage <3 It's actually playing in Germany now, but I've listened to the music for so long, I don't think I could take the translated version.

I've seen it twice, in English, and it was awesome. Though the Australian actress who plays Glinda has an annoying voice (trying to copy Kristen but now succeeding). It's also different because I've been listening to the soundtrack so much and of course these actors are never the same. Perhaps you can go see it in German and pretend you're watching a whole different show? It's better than nothing I suppose... Or go to London to see it :)

beautiful pics!

and random fact: Wicked the musical first premiered around here, in San Francisco!

[canadian_turtle]

Oh, that is so cool! Were you able to see it when it played in SF? :D

One of my sister's friend is in Australia too, so I saw other pictures of that kind lately but still, I can't be tired of watching such beautiful sceneries.
And you saw Wicked! *jealous*

I know, right? Oz is so pretty :) (saw it twice already :$ It's just THAT good)

I totally understand that you go to see the same musical more than once since I saw "Le Roi Soleil" six times and "Cléopâtre la dernière reine d'Egypte" four times (this one will be back to Paris next year so I'll go again, and in the meantime I'll probably have seen several times "Mozart l'opéra rock" too).

[canadian_turtle]

That's dedicated! I've seen the Lord of the Rings musical 3 times, but that's the one I've seen most. I always have to travel far for musicals though.

Those last pictures of the coast look sooooooo much like the West coast of the South Island of New Zealand. I suppose Gondwana could explain that though.

[canadian_turtle]

Oh really? I loved that place so I def. want to see the West Coast of NZ then :)

[artic_fox]

Yea, up around Punakaiki - they have natural water blowholes there which is really great if you catch the tide. They are also known as "pancake rocks". Here.

[canadian_turtle]

I've seen a few blowholes already but always at the wrong times when they were small, so maybe I'll be more lucky in NZ :) Thanks for the link.
