Arrived in Canberra and they had stuffed our booking so we found a site further out of the city and headed out. All good except for the darn kangaroo that kept turning on the sensor light and pooped on the doorstep. the van villages are turning into cabin villages and there arenover 100 here!
Spent the next day looking around Canberra, the leaves are starting to turn and it looks a treat, still warm but cool of an evening. A fun run and marathon had shut many streets but there are people out and about because it is such a beautiful day. Went to the Old Bus Markets - great but not as big as home. Good food for lunch - rice paper rolls.
Old Parliament House - the Museum of Democracy - well worth the visit, great tour by an older guy who actually knows the Barton family and told great stories of the history of the place and asked questions of a young guide who took us to the Prime Ministers Office etc. Some great stories and interesting too.
Following day was the PortraitGallery and lunch in the van in a great leafy street right near Parliament House..
