Australian Engish at Beach

In Sydney beaches, there are many signs as showed in the picture. All the signs I knew that there are two kinds of signs. One are warning signs for swimmers' safety, anthor are beach regulations for swimmers to obey. I know all the meaning of the signs because it is easy to read. In China, it has such kind of signs, but it has many varieties of contents on the basis of different situations.

Banana tree flower

Hi Marion,This is a banana tree flower. It is amazing. It may be taken in a resident house, because I found it has a clothes hanger in the picture. I guess it was taken in someone's backyard.
