Despite the twins and myself coming down with colds/flu/stomach bugs the day we arrived back in Townsville, I'm pleased to say Canberra was awesome!
Found craft & colour inspiration in the most unlikely of places...
Parliament house was pretty cool, loved the colour graduation in the public galleries of The Senate & House of Representatives.
The huge Tapestry inside the great hall was impressive.
Mt. Ainslie, looking down from above the War Memorial toward Capital Hill.
The War memorial & amazing Lead lights & Mosaics inside the unknown soldiers tomb.
Coolness indeed!
The AIS pool where the Australian Olympians train.
Got to catch up with family, including my dad & a nephew I'd never met.
Somehow wrangled the night off on Friday and nip into Civic...
Shop Handmade, but no Posie Patchwork in sight, she was on Holidays in Queensland :)
And finally a day trip to Thredbo.
Phew, now off to heat up the wheat bag & make a cup of honey & lemon tea.
Thanks Canberra we had a great time on school camp :)
Glad you enjoyed our Nation's capital - love your pics! Come back and see us anytime :) ~ Christine xx
