Canberra

Canberra is halfway between Sydney and “the snow”, and it’s a little bit like being in the Quebec mountains. The Brindabella range surrounds Canberra, but these are gently rounded mountains not the craggy peaks of the Rockies. We drove to the top of Mount Ainslie, keeping an eye out for the local wildlife…

The view from the top is quite stunning.

And here’s a closer look at the Anzac Parade which leads from the Australian War Memorial to the river. Across the river are the houses of Parliament.

We didn’t stay up there too long because Cathy and her family were FREEZING. There was a brisk wind, and the air felt really fresh and clean, just like in the Rockies.
