Australia Diaries: Chapter Tasmania

The problem with being born in a desert state (Rajasthan, India)  and living in another desert state is that you become "Green-Crazy". And obviously you don't know because, the most green you get to see in Phoenix, Arizona is on starbucks coffee cup...

But when you land in Tasmania, Australia... you lunacy is exposed. Its a hilly terrain, all covered in green. The emerald of nature scattered with cattle in the countryside and houses in the city, but at no point of time you miss the color of this state. I was told that winters has caused the trees to shed leaves and be "less green". Of course, I did not dwell on this thought as its absolutely beyond the realms of imagination. And I was too busy behaving like a dog chasing his own tail, with obsessive and quick turning, running, clicking, moving, capturing as much beauty i could in my modest camera and even iphone where i was being rushed and did not have enough time to take out the camera.

The Cafe at Cataract Gorge were filled with "food seekers"



There is definitely something called "too much beauty!!" for one geographical location. Sigh!!!!
