C. Y. O Connor Beach Analysis

Bondi-beach is one of Australia’s most famous beaches in Sydney. It is located on the east coast of Australia and is a suburb of the city of Sydney. ‘Bondi’ or ‘Boondi’ is an Aboriginal word meaning water breaking over rocks or noise of water breaking over rocks (Frances Pollon, 1990). In 1851, Francis O’Brien and Edward Smith Hall purchased 200 acres of the Bondi area which was named ‘The Bondi Estate’. During this period the beach was accessible to the public as a picnic ground and playground for families; Because the site quickly became popular it was endanger to become private to the public, yet the Municipal Council believed that the Government needed to negotiate the issue in order to make the beach a public reserve. The area was a working

I saw no one. Not a living person was near the cliff. No one could see me if I just walked through the barrier undetected. My gut told me to go back, and get my friends, that I shouldn’t go through the barbed wire gates without someone by my side. But my head was stronger, and I carelessly walked in. Behind the barbed wire gates was an area in the city I’d never seen or remembered the last time I lived there. It looked like one of those military sectors mixed with a secret science lab. The place was enclosed in gates all around. Most of the land was filled with white warehouses and small buildings. What is this place? What is this place? What is this place? Don’t trust this place. This place is dangerous. Stop walking. Stop being annoying and leave. They are after you.

At about 8 in the morning, I woke up smelling the most delicious smell of my breakfast for my birthday. As I get out of bed, the smell of food is making me glide through the air and taking me to the kitchen. But, before I can even go into the kitchen I can smell all of the food whispering in my ears and moving up my nose. The smell of brown sugar and banana cascade through the house like an intense air freshener as the banana bread is basking in the oven. This smell only intensifies as the aroma of buttery, sugary pancakes hits me like a ton of brick and refuses to leave. However, the savory smell of potatoes and eggs kick the sweet smell out with a punch as my mom begins to produces the savory foods like the speed of light.

Centennial Parklands is known as the 'green lungs of Sydney ' - a 360 hectare public space that provides critical ecological and environmental functions for the city and its inhabitants. [4]

October is festival time in our area of the South Brunswick Islands. It is almost like Christmas - the smell of food is in the air, the sound of music and vendors selling their wares. Each booth is another world. One has spices; one has handmade jewelry, carvings, paintings, pottery, information on local real estate and so much more! Everywhere another world; around every corner another artisan. It is a magical time…….so come to the beach and enjoy!

The beach has sensitive banks to the conditions of the shoreline and it is possible that the break at North Narrabeen would be at risk. The sea walls risks making the beach too dangerous, particularly the water, but the idea of buying the properties from the owners and creating instead an extended dune system will create a more natural state of the beach, letting natural coastal processes take place

Another tunnel leading off into a new direction would have came as no good news. Thankfully it wasn't. Eyeing the gate, he knew it not to be a passage of any kind but that of a former place of security. The vault, or at least what little remained of it. Its cramped insides empty. Not even a rat would dare cross the threshold, he thought glumly, thinking of the threats that had been made before. The place where the bodies of the bank employees and wealthy clients were brought. The killers would have likely preferred to have dumped them inside the vault itself, but the door had been locked and the key – from what little of the local gossip he'd heard, as that was more trustworthy than the newspaper articles – could not be found on any member of staff. Instead the attackers piled up their bodies before the gate, at the very cramped spot he now

Humans rely on their vision to understand the world around them. Over the many years people have changed their idea of what Australia must have looked like back in the nineteenth century. Short Stories by Henry Lawson and Clancy of the Overflow by Banjo Paterson, display what contradictory views of the atmosphere and situation of people in the ‘bush’ at that time through mental visuals formed in the responders mind affecting the responder’s perspective. Past writings can be authentic records giving a better mental picture of Australia’s past.

Located in Tasmania, Port Arthur is an extraordinarily well preserved and restored prisoner settlement. It was in operation throughout much of the nineteenth century. Criminals from Ireland and Britain were sent to the settlement which was almost completely surrounded by water. The tiny bit of land which connected Port Arthur to the mainland was heavily guarded so that prisoners had little chance of escape.

Numerous people have seen a ghostly figure walking the halls in a flowing white gown. She's especially visible on the fourth floor around room 408. Locals around the hotel have seen an strange looking woman with a parasol wandering around outside the hotel at night.

From the deep humid rainforests to the crystal waters of many secret small beaches and waterfalls, Port Douglas envisions what nirvana is.The large palm trees roots grow like placid snakes in their search to find nutrients amongst the thick diamond like sand, As the ocean breeze whispers throughout the rough branches that act as a home for many unusual creatures.The 'cheeps’ come from darting white seagulls which occasionally fly by slowly over the sea, sometimes landing, and floating briefly on the sea but soon disappearing back into the pellucid azure sky. Looking out all you can see is the deep blue sea that stretches out for as far as the horizon with ships in the distance that look insignificant compared to the Brobdingnagian ocean. A never ending sheet of water with

There are more than 2000 beaches in Brazil, which are the longest in the world. In this South American country, almost every beach has a history, where there are many races which create a distinctive cultural mix. In here, there is a perfect beach for anyone but there is an ultimate dream beach for Stanley Steward the author of the story. Prainha´s Beach is one of them, where the golden sand, the palm trees, and the silver wave looks like a picture from a postcard. On the other hand, Jericoacoara is an isolated beach which is five hours away from any airport and that´s why it hasn´t been spoiled by tourists but it is loved by windsurfers. The islands of Fernando de Noronha have more than a dozen beaches and people were prohibited from visiting

The condo sits on the Clearwater Beach about three hundred feet away from the ocean. Walking in from the ocean there’s a faint alluring smell that one would and could always know easily. The smell of salt water and sunscreen slowly but surely takes over and claims the nose. Before moving one would notice the cool breeze. The cool air from the air conditioner makes its way towards you and sends shivers up your legs from your toes then up your spine and finally making its way all over your body as your body slowly starts adapting to it.

Fact 7: Researchers surveyed North Carolina coastal homeowners asking what they valued in shoreline protection. It was found that the three criteria homeowners looked for were effectiveness, cost, and durability, in that order. Homeowners expressed that they believed bulkheads were the most effective way to protect shorelines from erosion and damage. Homeowners also believed that bulkheads were the most durable, but required the most maintenance. Next, homeowners were asked about property damage they suffered as a result of storms. Significantly, it was found that 97% of homeowners with bulkheads reported having costs associated with hurricane damage while only 75% of homeowners with living shorelines reported the same. In addition,

I want to stand in a huge space where I can stretch my body and I feel as if I am too small and disappear into this space. Where I am in high sky, vast sea and while sandy beaches stretching to the horizon. They intersect in a point far away to create a closed space. I want to tell you about Quy Nhon Beach – the best beach of my hometown and the most beautiful beach in my mind.
