Canberra?
The fact is that, yes, it IS warmer here than it was in Melbourne.
Just doing the touristy things now, including the Parliament House tour (really interesting) and heading off to the War Memorial (and museum) and the Mint tomorrow.
Points to note:
1) The butcher in Holbrook (near Gundegai in the town with the submarines) is excellent.
2) The Senate is, as we all know, decorated and upholstered in various shades of eucalypt flower pink and red. In order to not clash with this colour scheme they made the EXIT signs red as well and they had to change the law (which mandates that they are green) to provide this specific exclusion. It is the only place in the world with red EXIT signs!
3) The autumnal colours of the trees are beautiful.
