Goulburn and Oberon on to Canberra
We travelled 300km thru the wettest day I have seen for a long time .The roads were narrow and rough BUT that’s the idea of seeing Australia in the raw!! Stopping at Oberon it wasn’t difficult to notice the pollution emanating from large chimney stacks (wonder if the locals are affected by this action?) Goulburn is famous for its HUGE statue of a Merino Ram ( The ‘World’s Biggest Merino’ is a 3 storey structure of concrete and steel measuring 15.2 metres high and 18 metres long. This monument built in 1985 as a monument to Goulburn and surrounding district’s fine wool industry is an impressive life-like model of ‘Rambo’, a stud ram from a the local property ‘Bullamallita’.)and as mentioned in previous blogs Australians are renown for huge iconic statues thru out the country !! We have now landed in Canberra (Australian Capital City commonly known as the ACT) Xmas is a couple of days away so we have opted to stay here till Boxing Day Then its full steam to Melbourne
As mentioned before our SKI membership is dwindling very quickly ( SKI = Spending the Kids Inheritance!)
