My Blog has been a bit light on this year- here are some photos from the last few weeks or so.
On Friday I went to the War Memorial to meet a friend who works there, she took a couple of us around an exhibition on Camouflage that she had curated- it was really interesting and lovely to catch up with Ally. Afterwards I went for a bit of a wander through the memorial and had a look outside as well.
This is a new garden bed at the war memorial it is called the Flanders Memorial Garden, it has soil in it from Tyne Cot Cemetery in Belgium and soil for the Belgium Battlefields where Australian Soldiers fell. It is mixed with Australian soil as well and is a joint project between Australia and Belgium.
One of the lovely sculptures in the grounds of the War Memorial
A view down ANZAC Avenue to Parliament House that never fails to impress and make me feel lucky to live in Canberra.
Frozen bird baths above and below- we have had some cold mornings- minus 4 degrees but lovely sunny days. Today was 15 degrees - not bad for a Canberra winter!
Have been doing a bit of walking, training up for our trip to NZ in November. This is the back of Conder around the side of Tuggeranong Hill which gives you lovely views across Lanyon Valley. Below is Stranger Pond at Bonython Saturday morning, all places I can walk to from home.
Amy was giving Jack a trim, at one stage she had both Beau and Lyra on her arm watching and Luna sticking her nose right in trying to start a play fight with Jack. Luna disappeared once Amy tried to trim her nails!
Here is Zoe- Bill's macaw- she is lying on his lap being cuddled, she is happy to lie there for ages- I think Bill is very taken with his new bird,
