Canberra Walk 12

I climbed the steps of the library, looked back down and noticed this sculpture.  Having just had a bower bird move into our garden and build a bower I felt sure this must be imitating one of those. So I walked over to find out but the signage says it's about fire and water.

We are back at the National Library.  Next time I am down in Canberra I expect all of those poplars will be golden yellow.

It's time to walk back to the Library, back past the rose gardens and the Tent Embassy.

Canberra Walk 9

There is a House of Representatives garden on the other side of Old Parliament House.  This one what quite similar but had a bowling green.

Canberra Walk 8

It's the old Senate gardens now open to the public.  Nice. If there are Senate Gardens  I am guessing there will also be House of Representative gardens on the other side.  Let's go find out.

I haven't noticed those gates before.  And look they are open.  Let's go take a peak inside.

Of course the reason why the tent embassy is located where it is, it is on the lawns in front of the Old Parliament House, which was the active Parliament House in 1972.
