September in Australia is the first month of Spring, until November it is the season of regrowth and flowers. The first day of September has been proclaimed as Wattle Day — the golden wattle is Australia's national flower'
Certainly, the seasons around me don't come with the dramatic effects as it did in New England. But, if you're perceptive, then you'll notice how the colors of the city of Newcastle changes. You feel the change in the air, both in temperature and humidity. Flowers seem to burst their buds in a single day and garden fragrances thicken the air leaving a blanket of color before you, who could ask for more? And most Prominently, I see a change of pace and behavior among the residents... They have noticed this wave of warmth? It means summer is almost here!
A time of warmth and long days where partying seems to go on for months, up to the anticipation of what is not that far away... a fervor Season called "Silly Season".
