The dictionary says that
“walkabout” is “a journey on foot.” When
you think of a “walkabout” in Australia you associate the term made famous by
the Australian Aborigines’. Almost every
day here in Australia, my daughter Barb and I take a long walk. I look forward to it because I learn so much
about Australia from Barb and from what I observe.
One of the things I
learned is that Australians are really involved in participating in
sports. There is good reason for the
participation: (1) sunny weather seems to be the norm; (2) there is plenty of
green space in the form of well maintained parks; and (3) most Australians live
within one hour of a beach. Attached are
some pictures of physical activities that I have observed in and around
Currumbin, Australia.
