AUSTRALIAN GREAT OUTDOORS
Australia is an island the size of Europe, which knows every type of climate and almost every kind of plants, trees and flowers. The trees never lose their leaves. Its birds and animals are strange. One can find here a kangaroo, koala, echidna, dingo. It is a country where in winter you can enjoy everything from swimming and skin-diving on coral island to skiing.
The great outdoors in Australia is all year round. Many Australian families own boats. These can be small boats, large yachts, fishing boats and expensive power boats. Most families with a boat want to take part in the yacht race from Sydney to Hobart. There are thousands of boats on the water with their sails shining in the sun. They sail through Sydney harbour, which is the finest natural harbour in the world and then they sail past the famous Opera House. Many families spend all weekend on their boats.
Football is a very popular sport in Australia and a lot of families spend Saturday watching a match. Australians are also very keen on cricket.
In winter you can ski in one of the many ski resorts or travel to the nearby Pacific Islands. You can also dive for pearls off the coast of Western Australia, look for opals in the mining district of Lightning Ridge or look at the beautiful rain-bow-coloured fish and corals of the Great Barrier.
Not many Australian mothers work, so it is easy for the whole family to go away together. The distances between cities are very great but petrol is cheap, so a lot of people have large American-type cars with air-conditioning. Most families own two cars, and families who have a house or a flat in the city often have a beach cottage for the summer.
