Sydney --> Canberra, Australia

We took almost 3.5hrs to travel 400+km from Sydney to Canberra, passing through Wollongong where we had a pit-stop. Wollongong could be considered a small town with houses not more than three storeys tall. Too bad we weren't able to take photos of the place as we met with rain once again.

Canberra was still quite chilling despite it being summer. By the time we reached Canberra, it was late afternoon. My brother drove us up Mount Ainslie for a full view of the capital. It was simply beautiful. The city was really tranquil. Then it's off to a walkabout in the night near our motel.

Spotted: One wild kangaroo. Didn't see more today as the weather was considered too warm for the kangaroos to come down from higher grounds.
