half of friday afternoon and another hour this morning at the RTA (road traffic authority) and i've finally registered my car here. it was all a bit of a shemozzle. of course i had to surrender my number plates which i was quite attached to - XAN 565 - and now i'm officially a new south waleser.
my favorite roadside stall
on the wentworth/mildura
road. roses for $5 a bunch.
a tightly packed bunch of
beautifully perfumed
roses, sometimes crazy
clashing bright colours,
sometimes soft and delicate.
also on the side of the road -
big bags of oranges for $3,
plums, pumpkins, avocados,
tomatoes, eggplants, chillis,
it's the food bowl of
australia. and most things
are $3 bag - about 2 kgs.

| i love seeing this place as i drive to and from mildura, a lovely old 20's house, i don't know why it's been stripped - maybe someone was going to do it up and ran out of money, but this frame and sweeping roof sits on a piece of land that looks out onto a lake. i wonder what will happen to it. |
