  • Lake Parramatta, Australia

    Lake Parramatta, Australia

    “several hours (may be) occupied in contemplating the natural beauties of the variegated scene, surrounded by the stately forest which protects it from the scorching summer sun, in the centre of it’s valley, encompassed by stupendous rocks, a murmuring stream, delectable to the taste, meanders to the untaught notes of nature’s feathered care, that charm the ear with wild irregularity. Here caverns open to the untouched tribe, whose far recess forbids the approach of rude and chilling winds” (source unknown, as cited in James Jervis, 1938).
