From country to city - by bus.

Our car met an unfortunate end (literally) when it was rear ended by a young P plater who failed to notice that we had slowed down. Our other car was 250km away. So I had an interesting bus ride from the country to the city: from dry paddocks to greener mountain areas, to the big smoke with it's interesting curves and murals.

there is nothing like an accident of sorts to bring on a new adventure that is hard to forget. Nice pictures

I like the city country country contrast here.

@nobled Thanks Dorothy - it was actually quite good for viewing - you are so much higher up than in a car. I saw much more of the country than normal. Cheers

@shilohmom Thanks Batya - even the country changed as we drove along.

Sorry you lost your car, but pleased that it gave you the chance to relax on the journey and look out at the scenery.

@woofandweft1 Thanks for your commiserations Deborah - I think my husband may be secretly pleased - he's researching new 4WDs already. :)

That's what happened to me a year ago in September. Thankfully though my car was not totaled-it just needed a new bumper. That took long enough! More importantly though, I'm glad you and your husband are ok! You made the best of your bus ride too. Nice collage!

@olivetreeann Hi Ann - Thanks for your kind thoughts. As you will know - it is an awful fright when it happens. Nobody was hurt -although the young driver was quite shocked. The car has been written off - so my husband is quite excited - a new 4WD is in his sights!! :)
