Wednesday in Canberra

Midweek lunch on the terrace overlooking the lake at the National Library of Australia. This is a shot from the end of our afternoon. Hot, and very sunny – and definitely not raining, like the national news claims it is!

Happy Birthday to the National Library!

The National Library of Australia, on the edge of Lake Burley Griffin here in Canberra, was opened by Prime Minister John Gorton on this day in 1968.

Happy 50th Birthday!

Winter Sunshine in Canberra

Friday afternoon drinks on the patio near the lake at the National Library. Canberra put on a sunny and surprisingly warm day. It was a gorgeous end to the week.

After drinks on this hot, sunny afternoon. (And – as always – the Sydney news said there were thunderstorms in Canberra. Uh, yeah, sure!)
