Over the 1998-1999 summer I worked in canberra and had numerous trips. Unfortunately, I only had a camera for one trip, namely, the trip to mount pigeonhouse. I also have some pictures taken toward the end of my stay in canberra

At questicon(the national science museum) there is a huge ball made of granite resting on a layer of water about 0.5mm deep. Once set in motion the ball continued to rotate for more than 15 minutes. |  | One of dad's arty farty shots... |

For our last weekend in canberra a group of us decided we needed to go for a bush walk, we eventually decided on climbing pigeonhouse(dovecote?) mountain. The final expedition consisted of Matt/Wendy and Wendy/Matt(Yeah, they're inseparable!), Cosmo, Daniel, Mark and me. We went down to the coast in Matt/Wendy's car and Cosmo's ute. |
 | The last breakfast at burgmann.. Probably the least flattering picture of Mark in existance... |
 | Tridge driving while Paulus throws in random suggestions and snide remarks... Peter watching in horror. :-) |
 | Every friday a group of random people get together and play cards. Here they are. |
 | The daily computer science world domination planning committee. The "Pinky and the Brain" cartoons were based on these 'discussions'. |
 | After failing once again at world domination we take out our aggression on some innoccent soccer balls(and you thought manchester united fans were rough!) |
 | Every friday evening we played ultimate. I'm probably more of a hinderance than a help in these games; but they have to even it out somehow... |
 | Most of the NSW side of the Hume highway(from canberra) looks like this. |
 | and this... |
 | Flat rock hill seemed to consist of an enormous(1km) slab of granite. Pity I couldn't actually get a good shot of it. Here is the peak next to it(you can see the edge of the slab on the left side of the image. |
 | Finally home! |
 | And mum and dad helping to use up the rest of the film... :-) |
