Well we're on the final stretch today, from Threabo we're gonna
be going all the way back to Sydney.
We stopped off at Canberra, the capital of Australia to see Parliament
House. It's a very interesting building to see and I'd recommend
going on one of the free tours that take you round the place. It's
especially interesting for me coming from the UK as the Australian
government is based on the British system of Parliament - even down
to having the same colours for the two sections (red and green).
There is also more information about the building
itself available on the government website.
