We had a quick look at Canberra's botanic gardens, and it was enough to see that we'd need to come back and spend a day there another time to take it in properly. It's a big and complex site, and boasts 6300 species of native plants. They say it's the only place in the world where you'll see this diversity of Australian flora in one place.The layout was rather confusing, mind. We tried to follow the 'main loop' track, but kept finding we'd wandered off it and were heading in the opposite direction to what we'd expected from the map. But not to worry, it was all very pleasant.
And the (reptilian) natives were quite unfazed by our presence.
