happySo, after sitting around for a short while after our walk this morning, we decided to go out and hit a few of the local attractions that we haven't done, yet.
We started off at the National Canberra Exhibition, which is a small museum that tells the history of how Canberra was planned and built, and how they are still not done with it. It had a cool gift shop, which was made cool by the nature of they we having a 40% sale on their entire stock. Kimberly and I got new hats and Jacoby got another boomerang.
Yes, Jacoby throws the boomerang. Yes, they really do come back. In fact, if we had a video camera rolling, we could have won $10,000 yesterday as Jacoby threw it out there and it came back to him! - At mid-level! -Which he didn't catch with his hands! He swears it hit his leg. Right. We were there. That was $10,000.
Anyway, after the museum, we went to the National Botanical Gardens, which was pretty boring. Unlike in D.C., the whole thing was outside, so they couldn't keep flowers and such on display. It was all various types of trees, which honestly all looked the same to me... There was a cool rainforest section, though, and we took some pictures of that.
We also saw some cool birds and reptiles wandering though the gardens, as well.
After that, we went to here the Carillon play its bells, but we were a little late. We heard it from the car on the way in, though.
