Two days in Canberra

In Melbourne, it was hard to find people to say good things about Canberra. When asked what was something interesting to do on a Friday night, the usual answer was "Leave". Another compliment was that the "There's plenty of open space between the monuments".

Well, to be honest, it wasn't a very walkable city, we did have to drive most places, but there were a couple of nice restaurants.

My own take was that Canberra was probably much like Washington, DC was 150 years ago, but maybe without the mosquitoes (just big spiders!)
