Walk

Thanks to Adam B who spoke at the CBC meeting on 18 August, a visit to the Canberra International Arboretum was organised for Gay. We drove up to Dairy Farmers Hill and took the wheelchair walk to the lovely new viewing platform. Wonderful views. We then drove across the top of the site, stopping at a couple of sites for expert and excellent commentary. I hadn't seen the formal area earth works before.

Adam said an excellent site to use is www.nearmap.com - aerial photos. Check out the arboretum via it.
