Australian Vacation

This website is dedicated to an extremely wonderful holiday my mother and I had there. We were there for about 2 weeks and saw many beautiful sites. The reason why we went there is because my brother Paul moved there in June of 2005. He is now married to a wonderful woman name Chey-Lee and they have a son named Chayse.

Australia is one of the most beautiful places on the Earth. Officially known as the Commonwealth of Australia, it resides in the Southern Hemisphere and has the distinction of being the world's smallest contient. After being scouted and mapped by Capt. James Cook in 1770, the British quickly claimed the Eastern half of the mainland. In 1788, The colony of New South Wales became a penal colony. For the longest time, Australians wanted their freedom and in January 1901 the 5 federations that made up Australia's colonies would unite and become known as the Commonwealth of Australia. The capital of Australia is Canberra and its largest city is Sydney.
