    Canbera is known as the bush capital ( it’s the capital city of Australia ) population 400.000

    Nice green area in the city to sit and have a break or a cuppa

    Aren't merry go rounds wonderful? We have one at our town park about the same age. Horses made of wood; kept in good repair.

    DH has ventured out for the day alone IMG_3726.gif to go to the war memorial ( I’ve been before ) and he wants to take photos of his uncles name on the wall (DH was named after)

    His uncle was a pilot and was killed in his 20’s

    DH will take heaps of photos of the inside of the war memorial while I have a peaceful day resting from all our activity of being a tourist
