DAY TWENTY-FOUR, Canberra pt 2

National museum of Australia (right hand corner)

After such a wet day yesterday we decided to drive to the national museum of Australia and explore there. I really enjoyed it there. It shows the history of Australia from original Australia to the European invading to present day. I had no knowledge of the Australia colonial times so it was very interesting. There was a section of how none indigenous animals became a prolific nuisance because they had no natural predators and more adapted to being hunted compared to indigenous animals which was hunted out by foxes and other animals. The museum looked very modern and colourful and was completely free of charge including car parking. Which was a lovely day out, we continued to Black mountain lookout point to view the city from the heights. Then we heading back to Wollongong.
