Cable Beach, Western Australia
This beach gets its name from the cable that was laid in 1889 between Broome and Java.
The sun setting over the Indian Ocean is a real treat
The beach is 22 kilometers long, with the red ochre cliffs contrasting sharply with the white sand.

MY COUNTRY
By Australian Poet Dorothea Mackellar
Published: 1908
I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of droughts and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror
The wide brown land for me!

If I were there in Australia, I'd be seasick, the stairs, the ocean is like a giant bathtub. But the air would be clean!
