It’s Good Friday which means we’re dedicating this week’s Photo Friday to a relevant picture. Magellan’s Cross was planted by Ferdinand Magellan upon his arrival to Cebu City in April 1521 and is a symbol of Christianity in the Philippines.

Photo Friday #36: Melbourne Skyline At Night
On the eve of Kieron starting his new job we spent the night in Melbourne and took this photo of the city skyline overlooking the Yarra River. You can see the Rialto Towers on the left and Flinders Street Station on the right and it’s beauty like this that makes us love our home city so much!
Photo Friday #35: Australian Emu
Think of Australian animals and cuddly creatures such as kangaroos, koalas and wombats probably come to mind. But what you might not know is that sharing Australia’s Coat of Arms with the red kangaroo is the emu – Australia’s national bird.
Photo Friday #34: Filipino Banka Outrigger Fishing Boat
We took this photo of a traditional fishing boat in the Philippines, better known as a banka. These boats are prevalent right throughout the country (they are also used for tourists who want to go island hopping) and this was one of the more modern bankas that we saw while in Cebu.

Photo Friday #31: Cradle Mountain
Cradle Mountain is one of the most beautiful destinations in Tasmania (if not the whole of Australia) with an abundance of flora and fauna. We saw padmelons, wallabies, wombats, possums and even an echidna just roaming around without a care in the world. This photo is of Cradle Mountain itself as seen from the north across the spectacular Dove Lake.
Photo Friday #30: Cataract Gorge Launceston
After two months of being grounded in Melbourne, we’re finally on our first big adventure for 2012. The destination of this trip is Tasmania, Australia and we spent our first day in Launceston at the inspiring Cataract Gorge, one of the region’s premier tourist destinations.
