The drive through Fleurieu Peninsula revealed several picturesque lookouts that left us in awe – I loved the rolling hills and their crests, whatever you wish to call them. The scenery was beautiful, with gentle slopes that seemed to dance across the landscape and trees with splashes of green. We tried to figure out what the difference is between the hills and the crests – perhaps it’s merely a matter of terminology – yet, all the same, they looked so lovely.
We actually drove past the HMAS Hobart Memorial Lookout few times and stopped twice, which provided differing moods between day and evening. The evening shots had so much more mood in them. It was worth the second stop.





A nearby lookout showcased stunning scenery. We saw remnants of broken china on the ground. It must have been the end of a beautiful relationship, maybe sweet parting words. At the bottom of plates, you could see beginnings or endings of words: you piece…, manip…, fuc …ng sh… But you get the idea.






It is a lovely place and the skies are so wonderful Ritva.
That plate made me wonder as well. A good way to put someone out of your thoughts and life
There’s a story behind that broken plate for sure! Wonderful views – as you said, the evening skies are especially beautiful 🙂 By the way, in English the ‘crest’ is the very top of a hill, whereas the word ‘hill’ itself refers to the whole thing, top to bottom!
Beautiful gallery and text.
What a gorgeous landscape and seashore.
Enjoyed these, Ritva xx
Beautiful skies, Ritva. As for the plate, what a sad way to end a relationship.
😦
Dramatic as well as picturesque, these shots.
What a lovely dusk and sunset.
We call them low-lying hills in Australia. Once they get really high, we call them mountains. The Blue Mountains in the state of New South Wales are particular beautiful.
We use the word Crest when talking about the higher part of a road. After a road crest, the road usually dips down lower fairly quickly. Hope that clarifies the terminology we use in Australia.
You certainly travelled quite a distance on your holiday.
Vicki, thanks for the clarification 😀 . we will end up our trip to Blue Mountains – and they are beautiful
Fabulous landscape, Ritva!
Beautiful images and journey Ritva!
