51 - Canberra

We arrived in Canberra after our harrowing drive up the Clyde Mountain...don't want to do that again in a hurry.

We were met on the outskirts of Queenbean by our friends Chris & Noelene, better known to us as the Kids. We followed them to their house on the northern suburbs of Canberra. Blimey was it dry!!!!!

The rest of the afternoon we were given the Cooks tour of Canberra and then spent the rest of the day just drinking and catching up, and of course a superb meal was put together by our great hosts.
