Week 54

Travelling all week towards our Christmas destination which is Tumut.

Stopped at Parkes to view the Radio Telescope, another major learning curve, fascinating photos and a realisation that the planets out there are for real, not science fiction and they have time lines just like the earth, I want to learn more.

Stopped in Yass for the remainder of the week, and travelled to Canberra to see the sites.

The Botanical Gardens were a bit of disappointment, we have seen better elsewhere, although the indigenous planting a were very good.

The War Memorial made me cry, so many lives. The irony is that the visitors were from the countries we tried so hard to kill and we are all friends now. A waste.

The Old Parliament House although built as a temporary structure lasted from 1927 until 1988 when the new one came Ito play. Both striking.
