A Commitment to Australia...

an experience of city and town

During a visit to Kryal Castle near Ballarat with international visitors, I came across a refreshing room of Australian history. I felt 'Australian' when I read the words of one of our previous Prime Ministers, Bob Hawke, who said that, ' ....all we need is a commitment to Australia...'
 
Simple and true blue...
