Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra
Our holiday in Canberra
September 2007
On our first day during our short stay in Canberra this year we had lunch on the shores of Lake Burley Griffin. This lake is a central feature in the middle of this beautiful city, the capital of Australia. We virtually had the park to ourselves, except for about three hundred lunch-time walkers, cyclists, in-line skaters and people walking their dogs at lunch time. The many well-maintained walking/cycling tracks along the shores of the artificial lake are a great facility and obviously much appreciated by the citizens of Canberra.
The sunny, cloud-free day with a gentle breeze made it a wonderful picnic lunch.
