Atherton is a thriving metropolis, with some spectacular architecture, as demonstrated by the contemporary angles of the magnificent dwelling below.
LOL! Only joking . . . but seriously, I walk past this place every time I walk the half dozen or so blocks down to the main street, and I do love the character of this, and several other old queenslanders around the town. My home at the moment is with my Mum and Dad, and as well as one of the verandahs of the unit, you can see, in the photo below, that Atherton is actually quite modern with bitumen roads, line-marking, modern cars, and everything LOL!
What else can I tell you about it? Well, it has a shop in the main street called Crystal Caves that boasts the largest amethyst quartz geode in the world at 3.5 metres in height and 2.7 tonnes in weight. The town has a swimming pool (that I am hoping to take advantage of and start doing laps again soon), and a bowling green with a roof :)
There's another shop here, called Mystic Body Mind Soul, that holds DVD nights every fortnight, which is just great for me, and they are hosting the screening of "The Moses Code" (you can view the trailer by clicking on the link to the video of it on the right side of the page), but that will be the subject of my next Blog :)
