NEW SOUTH WALES - 1888-89 Centennial of New South Wales 4d Queen Victoria & Sydney Heads essay in orange-red on thick ungummed unwatermarked paper, imperforate at top. An unadopted design.
Long white sandy beaches, sand bars, mountain hikes, secluded tidal pools, amazing food, dolphins & koalas…. I guess the question is: what is NOT in Port Stephens? This place is my favourite place near Sydney and definitely worth visiting for a short weekend away.

1882-91 Scott 63 3p green "Victoria" Quick History The HMS Endeavour and Captain James Cook sailed into Botany Bay (now part of southern Sydney) in 1770, and so named the area "New South Wales". The First Fleet of eleven vessels with 192 women and 586 men convicts arrived in 1788 to establish a convict settlement under Arthur Phillip, first Governor of New South Wales. By 1892, 4312 "professional criminals", 766 of them women, had landed at "Sydney Cove". Few had the skills needed to establish a colony. But today's Australian accent derives from the original cockney English spoken by the convicts. And survive they did- eventually forming Australia as we know it today. The discovery of gold near Bathurst in 1851 brought in 100,000 more people for a total population of 300,000 in New South Wales in 1857. Stamps were introduced in 1850. "Responsible Government" was established in 1856. In 1901, New South Wales joined with the other colonies to form the Commonwealth of Australia. New South Wales between Victoria and Queensland I should say something about the rivalry of Sydney and New South Wales with Victoria and Melbourne during the latter 19th century. The cultural differences exist even today, as was clear on our extended trip to Australia several years ago. Sydney- bold, brash, outgoing, sunny & surfers. Melbourne- cultured, cafes, much more "English". What Australians have in common, though, is their love of sports. I became introduced to "Australian Rules Football" while staying with an Australian family, with whom we had become friends, when they lived in the U.S.. They were supporters of the Sydney Swans- even though they lived in Melbourne. It turns out that the Sydney Swans moved from Melbourne many years ago, but loyalty is forever. ;-) 1882-91 Scott 62 2p blue Into the Deep Blue The 2011 Scott Classic Specialized catalogue has, for New South Wales 1850-1907, 198 major numbers. I should point out, though, that there are many more minor numbers based on different color, paper, perforations and dies. No doubt the "New South Wales" specialist parses the stamps quite finely, and, probably, the Stanley Gibbons would be a more appropriate catalogue. Of the 198 major numbers, 31 are CV

Sylvia Kanytjupai Ken (born 1965) has created her Tjukurpa as extraordinarily vibrant and compelling paintings since 1999. In 2019 her painting Seven Sisters won the prestigious Wynne Prize (awarded by the Art Gallery of New South Wales). This is a narrative of the Pleiades constellations (the sisters) and a sinister man who followed them, within a richly evocative landscape. Painted in reds, purples and oranges with white dots scattered over depths of colour, it depicts the rock holes, waterholes and places that the story traverses.

For our anniversary in November, we decided to take a few days off for a quick city escape. We were keen to visit a new location, and decided to check out the charms of the beautiful country town of Mudgee, NSW. With a two-night stay, we had one full day to explore the area, which gave us a brief in
Ein Känguru in Australien? Okay, keine Überraschung. Aber ein Känguru im verschneiten Australien? Das hat es schon lange nicht mehr gegeben. Das Land erlebt gerade einen Winter wie seit Jahrzehnten nicht mehr.
