Canberra Cowboys


Have spent the last couple of days in Canberra. Had a tour and tea at parliment house. Full day at the GRDC for our debreifing. Had speakers from DAFF, EU, Mexican embassy, USDA, GRDC, AWI, RIRDC and ABARE. Lots of information and the relevance will become increasingly important as we make our way around the world.

Spent today at the War Memorial, National Art Gallery to check out Van Goughs work (along with 12000 other people) and the National meusum to brush up on history before we leave.

Fly out to London tonight. In shorts and a Tshirt now but got the beanie and coat on top of the pack.

Its all about to start!







Currently doing the last minute rush before I head off on Thursday. Got most of the farm stuff covered and just need to tidy up a few travel jobs.
We spend a couple of days in Canberra for our debreifing. Meetings with sponsors and industry representatives to discuss the current and future status of Australian agriculture. Looking forward to catch up with everyone.
