When the plans for the end-of-year road trip were finalized for Canberra and Lake Burrinjuck, I wasn't sure if it would be fun, mainly due to the fact that it would be my third road trip down to the capital of Australia with the Photo Club, and I had no idea what Lake Burrinjuck would be like.

But I loved going on road trips with the Photo Club, so I signed up anyway - And that decision paid off. The trip was from 14 - 16 Nov, and it was three days well spent.

Canberra itself was alright, with stops to places where I had not been yet, such as the National Carillon (above) and Questacon. We also revisited great places such as the Parliament and War Memorial (below), where I tried to get more interesting shots.

We did have dinner at a fairly nice restaurant ~

After one and a half days of city, we left for the wilderness that was Lake Burrinjuck, approximately one hour south-west of Canberra. And this was where it truely felt like a road trip.

Lake Burrinjuck was located in a state reserve area hidden deep in a valley area that looked quite different from the surrounding rolling terrain. It was a beautiful place, even though the weather that we had was less than perfect.

The best thing about the place, though, were the wild but friendly animals that were everywhere :)

I even made two videos of the Kangaroos and the Birds that were there.

More photos in facebook ~

One thing's for sure - I'd love to visit Lake Burrinjuck again.

Till the next time,
