Vietnam War memorial, sculpturally striking. Reading passages off the wall, you could hear the words and envisage the times - “More than 750,000 men turned 20 during the years of the war…a ballet - with marbles spun in a barrel was used to help select those for conscription.” To read more, please head over to my blog post https://www.facebook.com/4pairsofItchyFeet/posts/838698419534514

Everyone's read about Nassim Nicholas Taleb's book, Black swan, right? Well only few have seen one! Beautiful sunset on Canberra's lake. Nos that much visited by tourists, canberra is well worth it. it was a planned city, build from nothing at the beginning of the century. It is a cyclist paradise, with beautiful cycling lane away from traffic. Cycling round the lake can be a great weekend idea. Jogging or hiking round it can be a fantastic objective too. a bit of an oldy picture so sorry for the pixels! #Canberra #Australia #sunset #lifeatExpedia #cycling #Swan #hiking
