weekend

big sticks

Last weekend we took a trip to the Old Bus Depot Markets in Manuka. Lots of great/interesting stuff there, bargain herbs ($2 a pot) and wonderful fresh lemonade and hot apple cider. I loved the cinnamon sticks - the biggest I've ever seen.

Another great sight during a recent morning bike ride was a wallaby hanging out on the path. 

teepee update

It seems that the teepee is a personal protest about University of Canberra student accommodation. I love the idea that someone is actually living in it. No doubt it won't last long. Already on the Canberra website RiotAct there has been debate as to whether a teepee on a raft fits the definition of a boat, and if it does it's not supposed to be there. The teepee did look beautiful emerging from the mist rising from the lake this morning when I went for a ride. 


And while I'm linking, check out Audrey68's koala pics here and here. Seeing these pics makes me realise how rarely you see koalas that are not snuggling into the crook of a tree.
