And don't say Autumn!
Thinking of going down in the next week or so.. Are we too late or are there still plenty around?

Plenty around at the moment. Our Autumn has been, and still is, spectactular. We've had almost no wind for ages, therefore the majority of leaves still on the trees.

But the Friday and Sunday forecasts for this week both have N/NW winds at ~~40 kph (good for windsurfing ), so the leaves may all disappear.

Hope this helps, SB. Feel free to PM me if you like, for last-minute info. when you are about to leave.

Canberra's a hole.

Unless you live there - then it's a mountain of opportunity, and you probably look forward to Autumn and people visiting you from better parts of the world.

I'm still not sure if I believe in Canberra. I mean it's on TV but so are Toy Story and Wallace and Gromit and they don't make sense either.

A good Canberra story!

If a leave fall of a tree in the Autumn colored forrest of Canberra and no one is there, does it make noise?
