On the ferry to Rottnest Island, feel like I'm flying in a Dashie 😂 Grateful this is one of the smoother crossings #turbulance #avgeek

Good morning Canberra, looking stunning today.
I'm hoping for a little sunshine then late rain, that would be lovely.

Any photo storage app with an 'On this day' feature is worth having. Think of all the printed photos in albums you never look at.

Yes, we were there in late November and walked through the South Glory cave which was a delight on a hot day. Some caves are temporarily closed and others require you to join a guided tour.

My husband found this great webcam view of Sydney harbour - www.youtube.com/live/5uZa3-R.... The harbour was looking particularly stunning this morning as a cruise ship floated in to dock. #Sydney

Managed to get out of bed early enough to enjoy sunrise at Jerrabomberra Wetlands this morning. Very happy to sight a couple of Latham's Snipe birds while they are here for the summer. #Canberra #LoveCBR

It was so lovely to get out for a walk after dinner. Daylight saving works well for me I have to say.
Canberra was looking glorious as usual #WeAreCBR #LoveCBR
