My contribution for this week’s
Fun Foto Challenge

This Land Is Your Land
This land is your land
This land is my land
From the salt pan desert
to Lekhubu island,
From the blue gum forest to the Bass Strait waters
This land was made for you and Me.
As I was driving that ribbon of highway,
I saw above me that endless skyway:
I saw below me that golden valley:
This land was made for you and me.
Apologies for taking liberties with the lyrics 🙂

Awesome photos to go with the words. We had a different version of this song for New Zealand – from Cape Reinga to Stewart Island, from the Kauri forests… I can’t remember the rest of it but you get the drift.

So pleased to hear that. I think we only ever sang the American version and while a good song it does not reflect Australia. I could have used a number of offshore islands, come to think of it, but did not have photographs to match. Cape Regina top most north is it. I have been there and have seen two oceans/seas meet. Fascinating view.

We learnt the New Zealand version at school. Just can’t remember it now.

Glad you don’t mind. It’s hard to create those posts with lyrics which are totally ‘foreign’ to previous experiences. Does that make sense? 🙂
