It's a bit like Washington DC - set aside especially for the capital city, planned, and built relatively recently. Canberra as a city is nearly 100 years old. In fact, the Australian government decided to build a new capital city to stop the fighting between Sydney and Melbourne as to which of them would be the capital! We're about a 2.5 hour drive from the coast, so more of an inland / low mountainous region, with a lovely man-made lake. > > > > xo > > > > > > > > Ramblin' Rose > > > Moderator > > > > > > A merry heart is good medicine.
