"Canberra - town of dishonest politicians" Canberra by suzyq40
Canberra Travel Guide: 850 reviews and 2,110 photos
Canberra isnt a place where most people would go for a choice holiday. The fact of the matter is, there isnt a hell of alot to do there.
Its a town full of Politicians, wannabe politicians and military.
Canberra is the home of the Royal Military College, Duntroon. Defence Force Academy, a RAAF base, a navy base (not that there are any ships here) and Defence Headquarters
When i lived there ( I lived there twice) I was quite young. I used to enjoy taking the *** of any wannabe flyboy when they would tell me that they were a fighter pilot. Of course, I let them go, and then shot them down in flames. It helps when you know a bit about the Airforce!
- Pros:Very Friendly city
- Cons:Full of Politicians
- In a nutshell:Best of both worlds, Very Cold in winter, Hot in Summer

If you dont do anything else in Canberra, at least head off to the Australian War Memorial. I myself have been there... more travel advice

How long did you live in Canberra, one day. You'll find creepy crawley politicians all over the world especially in the capital city. At least if we dont like the poly we can kick them out every three years. cheers :-)
MISSED this place when i went to canberra. have a great time on your gap year
Nice page Suzie. :-)
Great, it just looks the same as when I was last there. It is a must see......thank you.
It does look spooky!
I've just been to that museum.
nice to meet you, and welcome to China someday in the future.
